Do you know the integration yet?

:fosstodon: "GitLab and OpenProject are both open source, which makes them a very attractive combination. One provides the features that the other doesn’t have. It's a classic 1 + 1 = 3 situation."

🛠️ A Community-driven solution for your Jira exit:

Developer Emad Ibrahim needed to migrate from Jira to OpenProject — but did not find a tool that worked for him. So he built the OpenProject Jira importer and shared it with the world.

Now, others can use and contribute to this Community-developed migration tool.

Looking for a migration path? This might be what you need.
