And that's fine!

Why the hell should we help a fork of OpenOffice.org? Did they help 
us? No. None of their coders even made and attempt to help us 
getting the basic stuff of OOo 2.x running. They simply waited 
until we had 2.0.x ported to Mac OS X Panther later Tiger and in 
the end to Intel PC - took our code, made some more or less stable 
additions, sold this for 20 bucks or so to early subscribers and 
that's it. Still they get all the attention and users blame us. 

All they can say is that they made a nice GUI to an existing 
product. And this can't be that hard. So I guess they are good in 
overacting etc. Everytime we fixed something important in our code 
we read in their forums that they did a heroic task in getting this 
bug squashed.

Sorry for being harsh but it's simply not true that we are the bad 
guys and Neo folks are the hereos of the day.
