Subject: Confluence vs WordPress

Jess,

We have an account on the campus Confluence instance (vendor also make JIRA). We (IET and us) have chatted about using it to track issues … but it didn't support knowledge bas from issues as the new campus knowledge base tool does. Well, maybe that;'s not tru!

If we could leverage this centrally hosted tool to both track issues and provide a public knowledge base, maybe we don't need WordPress after all. In fact it appears Confluence has a blog function as weel.

So, though you've put a fair amount of exploratory work into WordPrss, perhaps we should chat with the Confleunce folks here on campus to see if it meets our overall ne3eds.

Wondering if I can ask you to take the lead on this? I can point you to the right folks. We can ll meet and go from there?
