Dear Cèsar, list, <br>
<br>
regarding this issue in having effort for testing, translations,
spreading... i <br>
want to add that José and me put a lot of effort in spreading
gvSIG in Germany!<br>
For many years, we put our time and effort in doing
presentations, workshops on the<br>
different conferences like AGIT, FossGIS or Intergeo.<br>
We found a bugs that are well documented and we also work hard
in trying to fix them to improve<br>
the software and we send the patches to you to improve gvSIG!<br>
It would be impossible to work in real terms without local
committers (gvSIG has zero committers outside Spain).<br>
Changing gvSIG CE to another name would complicate this
exchange.<br>
<br>
Personally I would prefer to discuss on how to improve the
software and on how to improve<br>
contribution between gvSIG Association and non-members.<br>
Maybe we can find a way?<br>

Hi Ruth.<br>
<br>
I really appreciate all the effort you have done and I know you keep
carrying on, I don't have any doubt about that. <br>
<br>
But I don't agree with you in the need to create a separate project
fork to be able to contribute. I'm sure the process might be
improved, but it is already defined how to contribute in the
project, be it with code, documentation, translations, etc. You have
all the needed documentation in the gvsig.org website. Of course any
comments about it are wellcome.<br>
<br>
In any case, gvSIG being an open source project, anyone is free to
create a fork. I don't have any problems with that and the gvSIG CE
existence.<br>
<br>
But this discussion is about the name, which is generating a lot of
confusion between users.<br>
<br>
Regards.<br>
