Hi Wolfgang,
Of course this comments doesn't frustrate us.
Quite the contrary, we need you to be critic with the product.
You can be sure that we take into account your opinions.
A difference between open and proprietary software projects is that the
community can participate and this is a quite good way of participation.
Let's build gvSIG together.
I only hope that we are able to fulfil your requests and expectatives.
Not always it's easy.
Regards!
Manuel.
