There is the Meta issue 1XXXXX to track the potential stoppers for the release. If anyone would like to raise an issue for the release, please add the issue id of the issue you want to raise as dependent issue to the Meta Issue and drop a note on releases@openoffice.org, that and why you want to declare that issue as a stopper for releases.
