I too would be happy to do some proof reading. My vote would be for the 
British English because gvSIG has a lot of British users on the Mailing 
List and of course a few Antipodeans - come to think of it; do you use 
colour, behaviour, kilometre in Australia or the more American versions?

All the best,

Rory.
