Projects are selected for inclusion in the Open Source Catalogue based on several criteria, including their relevance, popularity, community support, active development, licensing, and adherence to open source principles. The initiative aims to feature a diverse range of high-quality open source projects across different domains and technologies.

The EU Open Source Solutions Catalogue initiative is currently focused on integrating national and local catalogues that meet established technical and governance criteria. To suggest an open source solution for inclusion in the EU catalogue, the most effective approach is to first submit your solution to an existing national or local catalogue, or to one that is expected to be onboarded in the near future.

An Open Source Catalogue serves as a valuable resource for developers, organizations, and individuals seeking open source solutions for various purposes. It simplifies the process of discovering and evaluating open source projects, ultimately encouraging the adoption of open source software, which can lead to cost-effective, efficient, and collaborative solutions.
