Today at the EuroCommons Coalition Day in Paris, we saw public institutions, enterprises, open source companies, integrators, and policymakers come together to discuss how Europe can strengthen its digital commons through collaboration.

What makes EuroCommons stand out is its practical approach. Rather than every organization tackling migration, interoperability, and digital sovereignty on its own, the initiative creates coalitions to identify common needs, pool development efforts, and accelerate open source solutions together.

At OpenProject, we're proud to contribute our experience in project and work management and to collaborate with partners such as XWiki and many others on this journey.

If you'd like to learn more about why we're part of EuroCommons, our collaboration with XWiki, and how we're helping organizations build a European open source alternative for project management and enterprise knowledge management, we've published a new article:

Our CPO Rosanna Sibora and CTO & Co-founder Wieland Lindenthal are joining organizations from across Europe to kick off the first operational EuroCommons coalitions.

We're excited to contribute to the coalition focused on project management tools, collaborating with partners such as XWiki and many others to strengthen open source collaboration and help shape the future of European digital commons.

Thank you to Groupe Caisse des Dépôts and everyone involved in bringing this initiative together. Looking forward to an inspiring day of discussions, new connections, and collaboration.

Is your backlog helping your team move forward, or slowing it down?

As products grow, backlog management becomes more challenging.

Priorities get buried, refinement becomes harder, and teams spend more time organizing than delivering.

With Backlog buckets in OpenProject, you can structure your backlog into meaningful categories, whether that's ready-for-development items, bugs, discovery work, future ideas, team ownership, or roadmap horizons.

In her latest blog post, our Chief Product Officer, Rosanna Sibora, shares how Backlog buckets help teams bring structure to growing backlogs and keep focus on the work that matters most.
