[xubuntu-users] Abiword 3.0.2?

[flocculant]

That version is in the repos for Zesty.

To get it available for xenial would mean an SRU [1]

Abiword is no longer part of the default Xubuntu , it used to be 
default, the only supported version of Xubuntu which contains Abiword is 
14.04 - this will be out of Xubuntu support in a few months.

It's unlikely that we would have the resources to look at an SRU for it 
for 14.04.

Lubuntu seed Abiword - it's on their 16.04 release, maybe you'll be able 
to get them to do the work on that.
