This is a request for Spanish speaking volunteers to help us with some educational content translation and structuring for gvSIG Batoví initiative in Uruguay, so that it benefits wider community worldwide. The aim of gvSIG Batoví is to develop a powerful educational tool that enables primary and secondary education students to understand space, to easily interpret maps and to learn free technologies as part of the wider CEIBAL Initiative  http://www.ceibal.org.uy/
