"This release is the culmination of many thousands of volunteer hours," said Patrick Luby, CEO and Chief Engineer of NeoOffice.org. "As a result of this tremendous effort, we are introducing a major new version of a very stable, full-featured office suite for Mac OS X that supports dozens of languages."

NeoOffice 2.1 includes several new features including Word OpenXML import and export, Excel VBA macro support, and a new set of community-produced icons for a rich Aqua experience. You can download it from the NeoOffice download page at the following URL:

Special thanks go to the many NeoOffice donors and Early Access members. Without their generous support and willingness to help test our code, free downloads of NeoOffice would not be possible.

Please note that NeoOffice may contain undiscovered bugs that may cause NeoOffice to crash. If you feel that you need software that has been heavily tested, we recommend that you use a commercially-supported product like Microsoft Office.
