Hello,

we inform you that gvSIG is initiating the stabilisation process of the 
next version 1.1. Already available is the first draft of the version 
gvSIG 1.1-rc1, it can be found under 
http://www.gvsig.gva.es/index.php?id=1731&L=0&L=2 (Downloading the 
program).

Hereby, we would like to encourage you to participate in this project by 
informing us about any detected error, simplest way by the means of the 
e-mail distribution list.

Definitely, we appreciate every kind of feedback and suggestion.

New features of this version:
- Installation:
- gvSIG installation includes now JAI 1.1.3
- JCRS Extension:
- Now integrated in the installation.
- geoDB:
- Now integrated in the installation.
- Field Calculator:
- It automatically fills table fields by calculating from values in the 
same table or geometry properties like area, length, etc.
- Annotation Layer:
- It can be generated from feature layers with any kind og geometry, not 
just points.
- A new independent non-virtual layer is created and persisted as shp. 
The original layer is not removed from the View.
- The table associated to the new shp file contains fields for Text, 
Font, Color, Height and Rotation.
- There is a new menu option “Properties of annotation layer”, where it 
is possible to choose units (meters or pixels), to draw text only, etc.
- In the “Add Layer” dialog, a new tab allows loading of Annotation layers.
- The process can eliminate duplicated labels.
- The annotation layer can be generated from selected features.
- The process can eliminate overlapping labels.
- PostGIS:
- When exporting to PostGIS, it is possible to specify the database 
Schema name to save to.

We count on your collaboration.
Kind regards
