What is the NeoOffice Early Access Program?
The NeoOffice project is funded entirely by donations from our users. Since over half of our donations come from a small percentage of our users, the NeoOffice Early Access Program is a way for us to thank our most generous users by allowing them to download a NeoOffice release before the official release date.
Users who donate a total of US$25 (or €19 or £13 or CA$28 or AU$30 or ¥3200) or more will automatically become NeoOffice 3.0 Early Access Program Members and will be allowed to download the NeoOffice 3.0 Early Access release from the NeoOffice Early Access Program download page.
Any donations made on or after 27 August 2007 - the end of the last Early Access Program - until 15 January 2009 - the end of the current Early Access Program - will automatically be counted. So if you want to participate in the current Early Access Program, but you have donated less than the minimum amount, you can qualify simply by donating anytime before 15 January 2009. Please note that your membership will expire at the end of the NeoOffice 3.0 Early Access Program and any donations made after that date will apply to the next Early Access Program.
Very generous users who donate a total of US$50 (or €38 or £26 or CA$56 or AU$60 or ¥6400) or more during the same time period will automatically become NeoOffice 3.x Early Access Program Subscribers. In addition to being members in the current Early Access Program, NeoOffice 3.x Early Access Program Subscribers will also be members in the Early Access Program for every future NeoOffice 3.x release.

However, if you only purchased a NeoOffice 2.0 Alpha, Aqua Beta, 2.1, or 2.2.1 Early Access membership, your membership ended when that Early Access Program period ended.
Do donations or purchases made before 27 August 2007 count?
Yes. Any users whose past donations and purchases equal or exceed any of amounts for any of the time periods listed in the following table will automatically become a NeoOffice 3.x Early Access Program Subscriber:
| Time Period | Total Donations and Purchase |

| From 23 May 2006 until 1 July 2006 | US$80 (or €61 or £42 or CA$90 or AU$96 or ¥10240) |
| From 1 July 2006 until 29 August 2006 | US$60 (or €46 or £32 or CA$68 or AU$72 or ¥7700) |
| From 29 August 2006 until 27 August 2007 | US$50 (or €38 or £26 or CA$56 or AU$60 or ¥6400) |
In past NeoOffice Early Access Programs, we were unable to track donations. However, recent enhancements to our Early Access Program software has allowed us include all donations made since 1 January 2006 to recalculate who would have qualified for a NeoOffice 3.x Early Access Program Subscription.
