What I need is a good alternative to Visio.   

I would LOVE to use it, but my company won't buy it and the IT Director
won't let me use the MSDN license for it so it sits unused.   And I can't
afford a license for it on my own...

I think it will take a while to get off the ground. My understanding
is that this is a fork of OpenOffice.org with the goal of removing the
proprietary bits that Sun and/or Oracle may have introduced. I
understand the Fedora project has decided to switch to it on their
next version, Fedora 15. I'd wait until it was packaged by my distro
vendor, as I wouldn't want to have to debug installation and packaging
problems in an office package!
