About this tag
Euro-Office is a free, AGPLv3-licensed web-based office suite designed for European governments and businesses. Its launch in June 2026 inside Nextcloud Hub 26 sparked debate over its OOXML-first approach, which prioritizes compatibility with Microsoft Office files. The Document Foundation warns this could undermine digital sovereignty by perpetuating lock-in, while proponents argue it eases migration from proprietary formats. The tag covers discussions on open-source office software, European digital sovereignty, and the tension between interoperability and independence.
