Notes on OpenOffice.org 3.0 Beta

Sun’s GullFOSS blog is a great place to see what development is happening for upcoming versions of OpenOffice. Lately the buzz has been the upcoming 3.0, and an OpenOffice 3.0 beta version is due to be ready soon.

Some of the new features include a long-needed fix to notes in Writer, a cropping tool in Impress and Draw, multiple page view in Writer, and a start center when you launch OOo without opening a document.

One of the biggest features will be PDF editing, but I believe that will be implemented as an extension to be bundled with OOo.

See a technically-oriented list of features and enhancements on the wiki.
