Join the "Neo Advocacy" effort — Spreading the Word about NeoOffice/J
Forum topic on Trinity — it's no "Spread Firefox," but there's still more than one person can do. Help respond to misguided news stories/postings on other fora, announce new versions, and so forth!
Activities of the NeoOffice/J Community Relations Team
The following is currently an in-progress guide to what the Neo Advocacy project does. More info will be added as the Town Crier gets the existing stuff in order.
However, if you know of a site where we should maintain a product listing, or a current listing not included below, or if you know of a site to which we should send an announcement of new NeoOffice/J releases, please add the site(s) to the appropriate section(s) below.
If you want to join the team and help us out, leave a message in our forum topic on Trinity!
