We are now studing the best way to do it. We know the resolution is not 
good enough to read the texts. We are evaluating other websites.

As well, we want to make videos in english.

You are right ;-)
First we uploaded the videos. Now we must put the links in the gvSIG 
website. That's a pending task.

The videos uploaded by us are those that we show at the 3rd gvSIG 
conference. So yes, they are official videos.

We hope so, as I say. This is our intention.

Of course now the majority of the gvSIG developers are Spanish but gvSIG 
is not developed for Spanish customers only. Otherwise, Why this list? 
We really want to make a universal GIS software. In that way, we want to 
  make as more documentation in English as we could. Even videos.

In the other hand, this is a open source project so feel free to make 
videos in English or to translate some user documentation to English. 
We´ll appreciate any kind of contribution.

I agree with you.

Of course. You can be sure that's our intention.
