Starting 1 July 2016, the price of NeoOffice will change to the following:

NeoOffice Classic Edition - US$ 15
NeoOffice in Apple's Mac App Store - US$ 39.99

Unfortunately, Apple has been making big changes in the last few versions of OS X and these changes have significantly increased our development and support costs.

We do not see any signs that Apple will be slowing down in the near future so we need to adjust the price to ensure that we can fund the costs of running the NeoOffice project.

You can still purchase NeoOffice Classic Edition with free upgrades for 1 year for US$ 10 through 30 June 2016 from the NeoOffice download page. You can also purchase NeoOffice from the Mac App Store for US$ 29.99 through 30 June 2016.

We have released Patch 1 for NeoOffice 2015.8 Classic Edition. This patch fixes the following bug:

NeoOffice would crash when using any Java-based features with Oracle's most recent versions of Java (version 1.8.0_100 or later)

If you have NeoOffice 2015 Classic Edition or higher already installed on your computer, you can download and install Patch 1 for free.

Thanks go to the LibreOffice engineers who found and fixed this bug. This bug only affects versions of NeoOffice that use Oracle's Java. NeoOffice 3.4.1 and earlier are not affected because those versions use Apple's Java. Also, the Mac App Store version of NeoOffice is not affected because it does not contain any Java-based features since Apple does not allow applications in the Mac App Store to use Java.
