I respect your opinion but this is non sense to me. General audience doesn't understand at all what a fork is all about. Simon explained the situation very well, sincerely and from a point of view really neutral: new users see two websites allowing to download different binaries with almost same name. That's all and it's confusing. With different names people easily can separate what both projects are doing and understand that gvSIG CE is a different group of people working in a different way, agenda, procedures etc that the gvSIG project. It's so difficult to understand that confusion? Check geotoolkit or libreoffice websites for examples of forks that doesn't need to use the forked project brand to stand by themselves. > > At least for SEXTANTE users, I do not see much confusion created > by gvSIG CE, but just the opposite, since now they have a reliable > source to get SEXTANTE from and be sure that it is working as it > should.

I mean, you are blaming a project because they have adapted the bindings of your library to work with the software. Regarding the gvsig.com reference to SEXTANTE, I think there won't be any problem to update the links or reorder the contents, thanks for the notice. Thinking that we are not putting a link to the SEXTANTE website because we don't want to acknowledge your work is quite awkward and unfair Víctor, but don't worry I'll update the website ASAP.
