Description Mike 2018-03-01 17:26:01 UTC 
The Help/About LibreOffice dialog shows the incorrect copyright date string. It currently reads: "Copyright (C) 2000-2017 LibreOffice contributors." It should read "Copyright (C) 2000-2018 LibreOffice contributors."

To reproduce:

In any LibreOffice application, click Help and then About LibreOffice.

Severity: Minor/Low.

Thanks for reporting the issue.
This is similar to bug 105789.
As in bug 105789, it can't be backported to 6.0 branch because the 'Hard English string & UI freeze' was reached before the end of 2017.
Anyway, Copyright in the work expires 70 years after the death of the author.
Closing as RESOLVED WONTFIX
