This has to do with the context in which the bug report was being
viewed.  The url originally used for the bug report was
https://bugs.launchpad.net/openoffice/+bug/70981  which is the
OpenOffice context for the bug report.  This is also indicated by the
yellow line in the affects table.  The "Nominate for release" option is
context sensitive so by clicking "Nominate for release" when in the
OpenOffice context it will be nominated for the OpenOffice project in
Launchpad.  To nominate this bug for fixing in Ubuntu you'd want to use
a url like https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdelibs/+bug/70981
.

I don't know the "right" way to change the context of the bug report
other than url hackery though.  Does anyone know it?

Edgy is still a supported release, well for a little bit.  I'm not sure
why feisty-updates doesn't show up and will look into it.
