Hola!

A new mailing list is now available for the Spanish and Castillian speaking Inkscape user community. You may subscribe to it here:

http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/inkscape-user-es

The guidelines for this list are the same as for the main user list:

1. Have fun! 2. Grow a friendly community 3. Strive to help out fellow users

I will update the Inkscape site and add news about this. I'd love to encourage you to spread word about this list to any other sites that you think would be interested.

There's been a proposal to create a new list for Spanish speakers. Does anyone have any comment on this before I set it up?

Also, I'm thinking that for language-specific user lists we should require at least 3 people pledged to using the list before we set it up. Does that sound okay?

Then we have exactly 3 people who already pledged to use the list: Norberto, Guillermo and Silvana, let's do it.

Very well, all conditions are met, and it appears all comments voiced have been in support of the proposal. I've submitted the request to SF to have inkscape-user-es@ added. It should become available within the day.

Probably after this is announced as a news item, more people will be interested.

Once the list is available, I'll put out the official announcement, however I would encourage the new members of this list to take the duty to promote it and encourage other Spanish speaking users to join. I think seeing news in the native language will be the most effective way of building the community.

Also, if speakers of other languages would also like to have lists set up, and can meet the same conditions that were met for the Spanish list, I will create them as well.
