It seems to me like they're saying "Commercial development for LibreOffice is at serious risk". It may be that all commercially supported development on LibreOffice stops- I'm not sure this would be a terrible thing at this point. Abiword (is a MUCH smaller editor) and gets a release every few years or so - There's not much it needs anymore. Evolution is no longer commercially supported, nor is Thunderbird - Developent may have slowed down after they lost their patrons, but they already did most things that they set out to anyway. Many OSS software doesn't have or need commercial benefactors. My personal use-cases are certainly relatively restricted, but maybe it's OK to just let it go into maintenance mode? LibreOffice already does pretty much everything I'd want it to. I (again, personally) don't see a whole lot of demand for new features.
