    From The Document Foundation Wiki

    In 2013, members of the QA team had a lengthy discussion about the meaning of NEEDINFO. Changes were proposed in order to identify what exactly NEEDINFO means. Up until then, NEEDINFO had been a status which existed in perpetuity, where it oftentimes sat indefinitely as the user was no longer following their bug and therefore would never provide the information requested. In general, there was agreement that this status should give us an idea of what bugs will realistically ever get attention again, not just be a placeholder for any bug that we request information for and then just sits there indefinitely. Which led to the current definition.
