I'm confused, are you asking for a backport to the backports pocket or
an SRU?  The bug refers to SRU in multiple places.

Backports in the backports pocket are NOT SRUs so its critical to
identify which process and goal you have in mind - SRU or backport.

Title:
   [BPO] libreoffice 7.3.6 for focal

Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in libreoffice source package in Focal:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * LibreOffice 7.3.6 is in its sixth bugfix release of the 7.3 line:
       https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/7.3#7.3.6_release

   * This source packages matches the proposed SRU for jammy handled at
       https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1988744
     and its backport is currently provided by the LibreOffice Fresh PPA at
       https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages

   * Previous backport of 7.3.5 handled at
       https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1987045

   * LibreOffice 6.4.7 (EOL since November 30, 2020) is currently released in 
focal.
   * LibreOffice 7.3.5 is currently released in focal-backports.

   * Given the nature of the project, the complexity of the codebase and
  the high level of quality assurance upstream, it is preferable to SRU
  a minor release rather than cherry-pick selected bug fixes.

  [Scope]

   * Backport of
  https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/1:7.3.6-0ubuntu0.22.04.1

   * Backport target is Focal/20.04 LTS only to provide an official
  build of a more recent upstream version of LibreOffice

  [Testing]

   * Upstream testing. Bugs fixed upstream typically include
  unit/regression tests, and the release itself is extensively exercised
  (both in an automated manner and manually).

    * A recent set of upstream's automated jenkins testing can be found here:
      https://ci.libreoffice.org/job/gerrit_73/1900/

    * More information about the upstream QA testing can be found here:
      * Automated tests
        https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Testing/Automated_Tests
      * Automated UI tests
        https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/UITests
      * Regression tests
        https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Testing/Regression_Tests
      * Feature tests
        https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Testing/Feature_Tests

   * Launchpad testing. The libreoffice packages include autopkgtests that were 
run and verified as passing.
      * [amd64]

   * General smoke testing of all the applications in the office suite
  were carried out by going through the manual testplan as documented
  by: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Process/Merges/TestPlans/libreoffice

  [Regression Potential]

   * A minor release with a total of 50 bug fixes always carries the
  potential for introducing regressions, even though it is a bugfix-only
  release, meaning that no new features were added, and no existing
  features were removed.

   * A combination of autopkgtests and careful smoke testing as
  described above should provide reasonable confidence that no
  regressions sneaked in.
