Hi Anna. 

May I first make one thing very clear. Neo Office is NOT OpenOffice.org 
(OO.o), and has nothing to do with us. 

It is instead an "port" of OO.o to make it run under Java. At one time that 
was the only way OO.o could run on a Mac without using X11.

Since the introduction of OO.o 3.0, however, OO.o now runs natively (without 
the need of X11). Last I heard, Neo Office was still stuck on 2.4, in other 
words it was still using an outdated version.

We would be quite happy for you to include the official OO.o with your 
publication. Since it is licensed under the LGPL, htere is no problem with 
licensing, and you could take this as a formal OK if you wished.

One question though - do you want only the Mac installer, or are you 
interested in installers for Windows, Linux and Solaris as well? We provide a 
DVD image for download which contains all these installers (the Mac 
installers are for both Intel macs and PPC Macs, so it covers even the older 
machines (provided they are running at least OSX 10.3.9). The DVD is 
available through Bit Torrent, or I could send you a direct URL if you prefer 
FTP or HTTP. Please let me know your preference.
