[Gvsig_english] POTENTIAL ERROR/BUG OADE gvSIG Beta 2 collapses project XML structure on saving

Hi Simon,

there are no differences in the project file handling code
between gvSIG OADE 2010 and gvSIG CIT. So I suspect it is
the Java VM that makes the difference.

End-of-line characters between tags are not mandatory for
XML parsers, so maybe Sun changed that behavior between
JVM 1.5 and 1.6, and they have to be manually enforced now.

I'll look into it.

Cheers,

Ben
