Ok, let's wait for the gvSIG's developers answer :-)

For the future I think it would be better to have only one installer instead of two.
Now we have the "classical" installer which "requires" permissions. 
On top of that, gvSIG's developers have also prepared a second one which is "portable".

At present, in my opinion, the situation is a bit confusing with two installers. 
Besides, many users don't know about the second option (that is, the portable version).
For instance, for Windows Vista I think the "official" version provides an installer which is totally portable (it only takes you to unzip it).
Its link is: http://www.gvsig.org/web/plugins/downloads/gvsig-for-windows-vista/releases/1.1.2

As for me, I would prefer the solution provided by "OA Digital" (because it is easier to use).
Nevertheless, as you have already explained, let's wait for the gvSIG's developers answer :-)

Best regards,

Silvio
