This Confluence space is a living example of how to share information with others. You may [edit|///pages/editpage.action?spaceKey=ds&title=Overview] these pages or [add|///pages/createpage.action] to the space whenever you wish. In fact, we encourage you to do so. :-)

Please direct any sales related questions to [mailto:sales@atlassian.com] or please view [our help process|http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Troubleshooting] if you need general help.

The main idea of Confluence is to make it easy for you to share information with others; team-members, family, and friends. Confluence, at its base, was built on the principle of a Wiki.

??A Wiki or wiki (pronounced "wicky" or "weekee", see pronunciation section below) is a website (or other hypertext document collection) that allows a user to add content, as on an Internet forum, but also allows that content to be edited by any other user.?? ([from wikipedia|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiki])
