+ <section><title>Office Open XML Support - POI 3.5</title>
<p>We are currently working to support the new Office Open XML
file formats, such as XLSX and PPTX, which were introduced in
Office 2007.</p>
- <p>Support for these is currently only available in an svn branch,
- but we hope to have a full release including it by the summer.
- People interested should follow the
- <link href="mailinglists.html">dev list</link> to track progress.</p>
+ <p>Support for these is currently only available in the 3.5 series,
+ which is in a svn branch (not trunk). POI 3.5.1 beta 1 was released
+ on 2008-07-18, and is our first release including the OOXML support.
+ It is available to download from your favourite
+ <link href="http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/poi/dev/">local mirror</link>.
+ </p>
+ <p>Please note that the documentation on the website is for the
+ 3.1 series of POI. Documentation on the new OOXML support is
+ included in the 3.5.1 beta 1 distribution.</p>
