Betreff: [Gvsig_english] gvSIG Community

Hello everyone

This mail is being sent to several lists, so I apologize for those who receive multiple copies.

We intend to put in place an infrastructure that allows collaboration on a speedy, direct and open way with gvSIG.

We are at the beginning of this work, but we prefer to announce it and start realeasing what we are doing, better than waiting to have “the Cathedral”.

You can visit https://gvsig.org/&gt; to see what we are having prepared. In the Documentation section, you will find documentation for users and on-line developers.

At the same time, two of the issues on which we are taking into account the Community as much as possible, are testing and translations tasks.

All of you interested in testing should contact Manual Madrid <madrid_man@gva.es> indicating in which areas of gvSIG you would like to help as testers, if you are a single tester or a coordinator of a testing group, and all those things that might occur to you.

With regard to the translations, the coordinator is Mario Carrera <carrera_marrod@gva.es>. We know that several groups of translators are being organized in different places like Germany and Italy. We have great interest in having the highest quality in english translations, as a base from which extend gvSIG to other linguistic communities. Of course, this is applying not only to the gvSIG interface but to the documentation in general.

That's why, on the issue of translation into English, we would like to have translators and supervisors, that are mostly specialists in Geomatics and english native-tongued.

Finally, a few days ago we were in the 2^nd Meeting in Open GIS Software in Girona. We congratulate the organizers and greet all the people with whom we had the opportunity to share a few days very rewarding, both professionally and personally.
Wish the Meetings of Girona become an unmissable event every year.

Sincerely, Gabi
