I had some problems with jaunty's ooo 3.0.1.  Specifically, it would not 
copy and paste in a spreadsheet I use daily.  So, I removed it and 
installed the deb binary from ooo site.  It works fine.  Now that 3.1.0 
is out, I'm glad I already made this swap, because it's already 
available in binary deb.

I like the new spreadsheet feature that shows a popup of the formula 
elements as you enter it into a cell.  Neat improvement.

So, it's a good alternative to waiting.
