A new job opening has been up for some weeks on Ubuntu's web site:
http://webapps.ubuntu.com/employment/canonical_UP-SE-RS2/

It indicates "[...] The successful candidate will ensure a first class
user experience by envisioning new desktop integration features for
office productivity, packaging, desktop integration, bug fixing and
development of office productivity related software such as Open Office.
[...] Required skills & Experience: [...] - Strong interests and
experience with Open Office and/or other Open Source office productivity
software packages. [...]"

Presumably this same person will take care of LibreOffice packaging. I
can't speak for Canonical as I am not involved in packaging or hiring
such resources (and wasn't, when I worked for them).

The current release is not alpha but a release candidate 3.3.0-rc1 which
I have been using for some weeks now and installs cleanly besides
OpenOffice.org without conflicts that I could see in my limited use of
Writer and Impress. I also tested language packs: logging into different
language sessions brought the corresponding language LO apps when
invoked, as expected.

I downloaded directly from
http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/testing/.
