This is great news, I too have been upset by the lack of ugly office suites. I am glad there is another product on the market flying the flag for open source and great user interfaces.
- teilo 16y agoThis is not a "me too" product. It is a fork of Open Office by former Sun employees and community contributors who have had an active role in Open Office before the Oracle acquisition. There is now more active development under this liberated model than there was when Sun was the steward of the project. The project is moving forward as never before. This is a good thing. If you don't care for Open Office, then there is nothing here for you here. But for those of us who do care, and use Open Office every day this is good news. It means that the project will not be impeded by the heavy hand of Oracle, a corporate interest who is only interested in promoting open source in so far as it keeps away the bad press. FWIW: Libre Office finally displaced Neo Office on my Mac, which is to say that the code base has improved quite substantially.
