They can all be downloaded free from

OmegaT 1.8.1, the first maintenance version, contains bug fixes on the PO and OpenXML filters, corrections to the user's manual, as well as an improvement of the PO filter.
The updated OmegaT beta version, 2.0.0, contains the same changes as the 1.8.1 update, as well as seven enhancements. A number of these enhancements are available using omegat-plugins, available at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/omegat-plugins
The accent is on languages, with a new set of Catalan and Spanish segmentation rules, new English segmentation rules, and a right-to-left alignment of the Instant Start for RTL languages.
The Japanese, Basque, and Slovenian localizations have been updated to both 1.8.1 and 2.0.

Thanks, Susan for the omegaT update information. I've downloaded the new manual; it's a nice piece of work. Bravo.
I have installed omegaT, used it a few times, and am reluctant to use it on real projects, in spite of all it seems to offer, because two of two times I've used it, the resulting target file is not open-able by Openoffice writer (v 2.0.4) because of an xml formatting problem.

I've downloaded the new manual; it's a nice piece of work. Bravo.
I have installed omegaT, used it a few times, and am reluctant to use it on real projects, in spite of all it seems to offer, because two of two times I've used it, the resulting target file is not open-able by Openoffice writer (v 2.0.4) because of an xml formatting problem. I didn't do anything unusual during the translation process, merely typing translations into the fields as they were presented by omegaT, then eventually creating the target files.
Could you or other omegaT user that sees this, please give me a hint about what I am doing wrong? I assume it is something I've done in both cases, as I haven't seen others describing this problem.
Thanks!

Before generating the target documents, always check tags (Ctrl+T). As long as some tags are mentioned as incorrect, correct them.
How to work with tags is described in the manual in Working with formatted texts.

| Confirming checking tags | Jan 19, 2009 |
I can confirm that, the need to check tags. Several times I have had the same problem, not just with OpenOffice.org documents, but also with MS Word 2007 .docx documents, that wouldn't open after being created. Once tags were checked and corrected there was no problem.

My video about translating in OmegaT is now available on ProZ.com's video page, although unfortunately the image quality suffered a bit in the upload.
