Sorry, I don't speak spanish, I can't navigate and use this web site.
As a general rule, I try to avoid to register myself to by country web
site, unless it does not require maintenance for each release.
I would like to note that we have a new version of gcompris about every
months. If I had to update 10 web sites in different country, it would
be too painfull so I limit me to sourceforge, gnome and freshmeat.
I think that local web site are extremely valuable but these need to be
maintained locally by gcompris fans ;)
