[Gvsig_english] Are there any Aussie gvSIG Users actively monitoring this Mail Server?

[Simon Cropper (Botanicus Australia Pty Ltd)]

Hi Nik,

I also use a variety of tools to complete my tasks.

Until recently I have been using Kosmo (v 1.2.1) but found it limiting 
in so many areas, very similar to the previous version of gvSIG. That is 
you can do 70% of what you need but have to refer to other tools to 
complete different tasks. Other tools I use include JUMP, OpenJUMP, 
Quantum, OpenEV, Sextante, EveryDWG and miscellaneous other utilities.

Recently I retested the beta release of 1.9 and was impressed by its 
functionality. It did 95% of what I needed. The only reason I did not 
use it in production is that it was a beta release and had a range of 
known bugs. I was very please to see that several weeks later that a new 
stable release was made available. I have been using this stable version 
since then and have been able to do nearly everything I wanted. My only 
gripe is that the icons are very small (especially for use on a laptop) 
and the map utility is a bit slow (although that said it does not crash).

All and all I have required to use 'other tools' less and less as I 
understand where the gvSIG developers have put various tools and how to 
use them.

Cheers Simon
