So Fog Creek - makers of Fogbugz, which lost out bigtime to JIRA - have now sold Trello to Atlassian? Is there nothing left of Fogbugz?
- beat 10y agoNothing but this here big steaming nine-figure pile of cash...
- ccostes 10y agoThey spin out each of their products (Stack Overflow, Trello) as separate corporations so Fog Creek didn't own Trello. Edit: I guess the spinning-out doesn't say anything about ownership (though the article does say Trello did a round of funding after the spin-out)
- stonemetal 10y agoStack was never owned by Fog Creek was it? I thought the only relation was that they shared Joel as a co-founder.
- willyk 10y agothat was my understanding as well, although there has occasionally been stuff written that suggested more too.
- manmal 10y agoThere was a blog post very recently where they said they will double down on http://gomix.com http://gomix.com now.
- anildash 10y agoWe're definitely investing in Gomix and we'll be revitalizing FogBugz this year, too — especially for folks who don't find Jira a satisfying or delightful way to work.
- philliphaydon 10y agoI can't figure out what Gomix is...
- rileymat2 10y agoIt is kind of a shame, I found the way the filters on Fogbugz to be a pretty interesting interface.

- slantyyz 10y agoOn a side note -- I don't know if they still do it (I believe they do), but Fog Creek used to give out free Fogbugz cloud accounts (2 user limit) to startups and students.
