Comming Soon OpenOffice.org 3.1
It's a semi-annual event. but our favorite software suite will be due March 26. Actually there was a minor release in January that handled some bugs and enabled the grammar detection. While I've dowloaded and installed it on my machines at work I really haven't put the grammar correction through its paces. List of goodies promised for OpenOffice.org 3.1 is listed on OpenOffice.org Ninja.It looks like Based ,the database program gets some attention. They Macros will be enabled, and Base now can use relational directories. This will improve portability of databases even across different OS platforms. Base has a lot of potential for data base users, and these features will be an important step in achieving more generalized acceptance.
writer.
There are some nice additions to Writer. Notes will become more conversational. This will be helpful in cooperative projects.One will basically be able to reply to another users notes. Notes the way it is implimented is very useful now, but this extends the usefullness even more.
Anti-aliasing is implimented for smoother graphics.
Calc is getting some more charting options and antialiasing improvements.
Unfortuanatly they haven't schedualed engineering notation for this release even though it is schedualed to be implimented sometime in the 3.x lifecycle.
Update: 1 April
Still not out yet maybe on April 15th
