Confluence 3.0 버전 릴리스

2009년 6월 1일


Confluence 3.0은 대대적인 새로운 기능과 개선사항을 포함하였습니다.
이번 버전에서 새로운 매크로 브라우저(Macro Browser) 기능이 추가되어 간단히 클릭만으로 80개 이상의 Confluence 매크로를 페이지에 추가하실 수 있습니다.
매크로(Macros)를 이용하여 페이지 내에 멀티미디어나 RSS 피드, 혹은 태스크 목록과 같은 여러 도구들을 추가하실 수 있습니다.
매크로 브라우저를 통해 사용자는 쉽게 필요한 매크로를 선택하여 최종 페이지 추가 전에 미리보기를 통해 확인해 보실 수 있습니다.
또한 페이지에서 기존의 매크로 인자값을 쉽게 수정, 편집할 수 있게 되었습니다.
Confluence 3.0은 사이트 내에서 다른 사용자들과 연결할 수 있도록 하는 소셜네트워크 기능들을 제공합니다.

User Profiles(사용자 프로필) 은 이제 더욱 직관적인 레이아웃으로 다시 디자인 되었으며, 사용자가 자신의 메신저나 다른 블로그 사이트 등과 같은 정보를 공유하기 위한 추가적인 필드를 제공합니다.

Network(네트워크) 기능은 Confluence 사이트 안에서 다른 사용자의 작업을 따라가며 그 사람의 모든 활동(페이지 편집, 블로그 포스트, 상태 업데이트 등)을 확인할 수 있도록 해 줍니다.

새로운 Hover Profile(풍선 프로필창) 기능은 Confluence의 어느곳에서든 사용자명위에 마우스를 가져다 놓으면, 바로 사용자의 프로필 정보를 볼수 있는 기능입니다. Hover profiles은 사용자의 메일주소와 프로필 세부사항을 쉽게 볼수 있게 해주며 간단히 나의 인적 네트워크에 추가할 수 있도록 합니다.

마지막으로, *User Status(사용자 상태)*를 설정함으로서 팀원들에게 간단한 메시지를 보내거나, 링크를 공유하거나 하여 현재 자신이 작업중인 상황을 다른사람에게 알려줄 수 있도록 합니다. 일단 현재의 상태 메시지를 업데이트하면, 여러 활동 정보, 프로필 보기, 그리고 프로필 사이드 바 등에 모든 업데이트 된 정보가 보여지게 됩니다.

새로운 PDF Export (PDF 내보내기) 기능은 Confluence에서 가장 많이 요청된 기능으로 이제 Cascading Style Sheet (CSS)를 수정하여 PDF 내보내기를 마음대로 커스터마이즈 할 수 있습니다. 페이지 및 마진 크기, 타이틀 페이지 추가하기, 머리말과 꼬리말 커스터마이즈, 내용목록 등을 쉽게 수정 추가할 수 있으며, 또한 내보낼 문서의 일부분만을 쉽게 선택할 수 있습니다.

Rich Text Editor (리치텍스트 에디터, 위지위그 에디터) 가 이제 right-click context menu(오른쪽 컨텍스트 메뉴) 를 지원하게 되어, 더욱 쉽게 링크, 이미지, 매크로, 테이블 등을 Confluence 페이지에 추가할 수 있습니다. 또한 테이블 내에서 복사/붙여넣기가 가능해 졌습니다.

Confluence의 performance(성능) 이 standalone 버전과 클러스터 된 설치에서 매우 현저히 개선되었습니다. 더욱이, scalability 가 개선되어 이전 버전에 비하여 CPU 활용이 더욱 좋아졌습니다.

관리기능 개선



Confluence contains a number of improvements to its administrative features, many of which are easily accessible from the Administration Console.



  • Security improvements:

    • A new form token authentication mechanism provides Confluence with the means to validate the origin and intent of requested actions, thus adding an additional level of security against phenomena such as cross-site request forgery.

    • Anti-XSS mode is now enabled by default and the remaining encoding bugs have been fixed.

  • You can now generate a thread dump from the Administration Console. See our documentation on generating a thread dump.
