Version 3.1.0 includes a number of improvements over the 3.0 version:
- PreparedGeometry operations for very fast predicate testing.
- Intersects()
- Covers()
- CoveredBy()
- ContainsProperly()
- Easier builds under MSVC and OpenSolaris
- Thread-safe CAPI option
- IsValidReason added to CAPI
- CascadedUnion operation for fast unions of geometry sets
- Single-sided buffering operation added
- Numerous bug fixes.

Users of the upcoming PostGIS 1.4 will find that compiling against
GEOS 3.1 provides them access to some substantial performance
improvements and some extra functions.
Quoting Hobu: "best announce ever" :-)
Thanks Paul and everyone involved!
Best regards,
