Public bug reported:

I received a numbers file from a client which, when opened in
LibreOffice, truncated at the first email address in the content. So I
used numbers2ods to create a .ods files, which LO complained was
corrupt. I then  used numbers2ods to create a flat ODS file to look at
the output generated.

A typical email address was generating the following XML snippet:
<table:table-cell table:style-name="Sheet0_cell2">
   <text:p text:style-name="S0">
      <text:a xlink:href="mailto:[email protected]"; xlink:type="simple">
          [email protected]
    </text:p>
</table:table-cell>


Note that <text:a> is never closed

Given that the LO and numbers2ods seem to break at the same point on the
same input I would imagine there is a common cause (is writerperfect
used by LO?) and if so the bug is sure to be affecting more people using
LO than writerperfect directly, but it's with numbers2ods that I have
been able to diagnose the problem hence the report here.
