New functionality is saved for the forthcoming version 3.2, scheduled for release in late November. For security reasons alone the project team recommends that all OpenOffice users switch to version 3.1.1.

The OpenOffice team has also issued an express warning not to download from third party sites running registration scams, even if the OpenOffice website is temporarily unavailable. In this case, the team recommends patience and that users simply try again later.
