[Gvsig_english] gvSIG Community

[Wolfgang Qual]

Hello Gabi, Mario and list.
Thank you very much for your efforts. This wiki-tool looks great - I only have three questions regarding that new feature:

1) how can new users register (themselves)?
2) regarding translation: could you give some hints, how users can start translating the manual? Is there an option like "Create a translation of this page into ... german/.../...?
3) Once the manual is translated on that wiki: who is going to transform it into pdf/openoffice ... format?

Best regards,
Wolfgang

> 
> All of you interested in testing should contact Manual Madrid

> testing group, and all those things that might occur to you.

> With regard to the translations, the coordinator is Mario Carrera 
> <carrera_marrod at gva.es>. We know that several groups of translators are

> 
> That's why, on the issue of translation into English, we would like to

> 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

> Wish the Meetings of Girona become an unmissable event every year.
