I do know this is a little bit of a cultural issue, although I cannot
still understand why it's so important for people to have a community
named after the piece of land they born in. Allow me to explain it:

The Spanish OpenSolaris community is up and running. It is the OS
community for ALL Spanish speaking user and developers. That is the
common between all the participants in the community. It does not
matter whether you are live in Costa Rica, Guatemala, Panama, Ecuador,
Paraguay, Uruguay or any other of the Spanish speaking countries; as
much as it doesn't matter if you are blond, tall or have blue eyes.

There are about 25 Spanish speaking countries around the world. Do you
really think it would make sense to have 25 communities (half of them
death and the other half duplicating efforts).

I will be more that happy to support a new Spanish local community as
soon as there is a real necessity for it. So, PLEASE use the Spanish
community as it were yours, because it IS actually. :-)
