Many people will continue using OOo 3.2 (or earlier) for some time after 3.3 is released. A few things (the Print dialog, slide creation in Impress, probably others) are so dramatic that if we simply update the user guides to OOo3.3, they won't serve the needs of 3.2 users. Therefore I think we should include both sets of instructions, clearly marked for the relevant version of OOo. (And leave the earlier info out of the LibO version of the docs; a good use of a conditionally hidden section.)
The other choice is to produce an updated chapter and keep the old chapter as well, but I don't think this is a good idea because people are likely to grab the wrong version of the chapter... and it's just one more thing for us to keep track of. I'm not suggesting this approach for all the changes, just the major ones. BTW, in the past we've included note-like tables saying "New in [version]" but that's only useful for NEW not CHANGED features. Comments?
