The first major release of the 3.0 series of open source office suite OpenOffice.org, version 3.1, is now available with big improvements in usability and the user interface.

OpenOffice.org now has anti-aliasing making graphics look "smoother" on screen and dragging objects now displays a "shadow" of the object, rather of a dotted outline.

General text formatting improvements include "overlining" in addition to regular underlining, subtle highlighting of background text and better grammar checker integration.
