Agile planning gets a boost from new features in GitLab 18.10

GitLab 18.10 introduces a unified work items list and saved views to improve Agile planning workflows.

• •The new work items list combines epics, issues, and other work item types into a single unified list, replacing separate list pages
• •Saved views allow users to store and reuse customized list configurations including filters, sort order, and display options
• •The term "work items" replaces "issues" to support future configurable work item types that match each organization's planning hierarchy
• •This update is built on the work items framework introduced in 2024, designed to deliver consistent functionality across all planning objects
• •Future plans include hierarchy/table views for visualizing relationships, consolidated Boards, and full swimlane support for any work item attribute
