Hickengruendler:

I snipped all of Debbie's points, with which I agree, though I want to 
add, that Neville can of course get the glory he deserves without 
killing Voldemort. One of the possibilities, namely him defeating 
Bellatrix, was already mentioned earlier in this thread.

However, I want to add another point, which closely ties in to Debbie's 
point, that she hopes there's some twist involved, that we don't know 
about. When answering a question about the prophecy on her website, JKR 
said, that she worded it very carefully, and that she is not going to 
say anymore. Meaning that there's at least something, that we don't 
know about, and that Dumbledore's interpretation of the prophecy is 
probably not 100% correct. Of course this doesn't have to be about 
Neville, we'll have to see, and I doubt we'll get the answer before the 
end of book 7.

Hickengruendler, who thinks that Harry is the one to defeat Voldemort, 
but nonetheless would not rule out Neville totally
