Maintainer. All LibreOffice uploads since February are by me. I will
still keep my application up as this is faster that the maintainer
membership process.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/775608
Importance: High in LibreOffice (Ubuntu)
While the conditions to trigger the bug are not too common, Calc is a
core application and installed by default and the results are possibly
devastating because the error might go unnoticed for a long time at
cause severe data corruption as a result.

Importance: Medium in lo-menubar (Ubuntu Natty)
lo-menubar is a non-core application and not installed by default. The
scenario to trigger the bug is common, and the impact is severe with
possible data-loss (by crashing LO with unsaved changes).

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/732412
Importance: Low in LibreOffice (Ubuntu)
There is a known workaroud and it is mostly an cosmetic issue. Also the
real bug is in bamf and the changes to LibreOffice are a workaround
themselves.

Importance: Undecided in LibreOffice (Ubuntu)
Hard to tell how to judge that for a single package as the bug is not
really affecting or effecting end users at all. As such the importance
is only important judged by the additional maintainer work resulting
from not fixing it. I would leave the importance deliberately
"undecided" and leave the judgment to the Firefox maintainer.

Importance: Medium-Low
This is a bit of a cornercase. This is a crash, which should be
considered at least "moderate impact", and LibreOffice is a core
application making the importance "Medium". However, this is a rare
issue, triggered by a race condition and the crash happens on exit
without dataloss, thus this could be also considered a cosmetic issue
=> importance "Low". The reason I still cared about this bug is because
a crash on exit can make automatic testing hard and thus create lots of
needless work on packaging.

Importance: Wishlist at LibreOffice (upstream)
Requires new feature development upstream.

Best,

Bjoern
