I can't understand that. What kind of "working together" is that? Without gvSIG is not possible to have gvSIG OADE.<br>gvSIG needs to have a larger number of external contributors working together on the same project but not in different ones. There are now several external contributors working on the same project: <span style="text-decoration: underline;">gvSIG</span>. Why should it be different with OADE? This approach seems not to be right :(<br>Regards<br>Jose<br><br><div> </div>--<br>José Antonio Canalejo Alonso<br>CSGIS<br>Email:jose.canalejo@csgis.de<br><span>Web: <a target="_blank" href="http://www.csgis.de">http://www.csgis.de</a></span><div><br></div><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size:
