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.

using Xubuntu 16.04

I believe this has now been released - one feature of this release is the editing highlight bug is now fixed [used to be stuck on black which was a pain].

I was wondering if this version was going to be put in the repos as 16.04 is LTS.

thanks
