While going over the release notes for 4.4.6.3 (https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/4.4.6/RC3) I found there are many documentation bugs listed which don't appear to have actually been fixed on that branch. I mention this more because it seems there's some kind of malfunction with identifying which bugs are actually relevant to given release notes, which could be more widespread than this one instance. (I haven't checked yet.) To give some specific examples I've looked at: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=84262 https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85228 https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80589 https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86637 I expect many others are also on that list in error.
Valid observation--guess there could be an issue in building the list for the release notes. @Cloph, @Robinson?
** Please read this message in its entirety before responding ** To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present on a currently supported version of LibreOffice (5.1.6 or 5.2.3 https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the version of LibreOffice and your operating system, and any changes you see in the bug behavior If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a short comment that includes your version of LibreOffice and Operating System Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION.

I think this can be closed, I haven't noticed any more issues like this of late.
