A beta for docx4j 3.2.2 is now available, from http://www.docx4java.org/docx4j/docx4j-3.2.2-beta1.jar

Or use the source code; see the instructions at http://www.docx4java.org/blog/2015/06/docx4j-from-github-in-eclipse-5-years-on/

So please test it, and let us know whether you notice any problems! Its a drop in replacement for 3.2.1 or 3.2.0.

• xlsx4j - Variable replacement in xlsx4j

Any idea when the release will happen? Also I've read somewhere else that 3.2.2 will support Word 2013 repeating content controls. Is that still true? Just asking, because it isn't mentioned here. Anyway, I'll try the beta tomorrow. Cheers for all the great work you're doing here!

Soon! There is nothing holding it up, except that in my dev env i've got the 3.3.0 branch checked out, where I've been working on Protect Document / Workbook / Spreadsheet functionality. Maybe next week...

Also I've read somewhere else that 3.2.2 will support Word 2013 repeating content controls. Is that still true?

Yes, but for the reasons I blogged about, I don't recommend you use them...
