As it is mentioned in the post we chose to prioritize performance improvements for FishEye, helping our customers to stay productive as they grow. Building a native integration via AppLinks is something that we would like to offer but I cannot give you a concrete deadline regarding this. Finally I would like to mention that it is possible to leverage the plugin SDK to build integrations between FishEye / Crucible and Stash. The SDK is something that we really believe in and that we developed to give our customers the flexibility of creating their own extensions, not having to rely on us for every feature they would like to have. More information about the plugin SDK can be find at https://developer.atlassian.com/display/FECRUDEV/FishEye+and+Crucible+Plugin+Guide.

The hacks that are currently needed to make it run as a windows service are insane. By William H on August 15, 2012 / Reply Hi William, Unfortunately, a Windows service is not included in this release.

Giancarlo Lionetti Atlassian By Giancarlo Lionetti on August 16, 2012 Hi, I was hoping this version would have a way to automate code reviews, at least to a point. Is there a way to achieve that with this version? That must be a common usecase for Crucible… Thanks, Peter By Peter T on August 16, 2012 / Reply Hi Peter, blogs.atlassian.com/2012/08/fisheye-crucible-28-dev-speed-code-collaboration/ 4/6 1/30/13 FishEye and Crucible 2.8 Released: Faster Browsing, Speedier Collaboration Cycles | Atlassian Blogs Could you expand on what you are looking for when you say automate code reviews? There is currently a plugin available for FishEye/Crucible that automatically creates a review for each commit made on a FishEye repository.
