Thanks for the information,
As i understood from the chat i had with the man behind their project, they are a curation project.
I intend to provide sustained growth of the Spanish steemian community, so they will indirectly benefit from user-base growth, we are open to cooperation as our goals are not either exclusive (as in excluding) nor competition.
They provide a great service by aggregating content under their brand, we just intend to provide an environment for all people that speaks #castellano as steemit is much more than a content farm and curation is not the only activity that a witness can do for the users.
Our main goal is to use steemit as a platform to encourage discussion and idea shaping, as everyone has something to offer.
I've inspired the several sub-projects we are preparing and some running pilots in other witnesses activities for making the community grow.
You must have misunderstood.
They do more than curation and also have their own chat server.
It is great to see other spanish speaking witnesses supporting the network. Creating high quality content written and spoken in spanish incentivicing the users for doing so is one of the main goals of cervantes and curation is of course one of the main tools since voting is the only way to give value to post and allocate the reward pool. But it is not the only one. We are a community building project promoting user interactions with chats, meetups organisation teams, content discovery teams, help-channels, abuse fighting teams, faq writting, translation services, magazines and radio channels. And as i said, looking forward to see your contributions and projects. We are already supporting other spanish speaking witnesses wo are backuping the network with their computing power and are looking forward to see your contributions to consider you in our voting queue.
Thanks for your in deep explanation, i take the opportunity to leave here the unanswered discussion i tried to have with your associate on steemit.chat as i think #cooperation is the key for success.
I invite to you to continue the discussion and find a common ground to work towards Steemit 's ultimate objective building communities.
