[Gvsig_english] User documentation, demos, manuals

[Simon Cropper (Botanicus Australia Pty Ltd)]

Hi everyone,

How is gvSIG setup to handle user provision of on-line documentation, 
demos and manuals by _users_?

The first and most obvious issue is that of copyright. gvSIG 
documentation and software is covered with  copyright notices. How does 
a user wishing to contribute documentation that includes pictures of the 
GUI get permission to do so from the owners of the software?

Second issue is where to submit this documentation so others can find 
it. The gvSIG webpage indicates that it will eventually provide a place 
for this type of data but it currently does not. Personally I don't 
think creating a new page on my company's webpage would be appropriate 
because others will not necessarily look for this type of information in 
this location. I also note the there is no other Australia users on the 
mail server, or at least none willing to reply to my previous postings, 
which could collaborate to form a local user group.

Any comments would be greatly appreciated
