First, I must inform you that we conduct all of our user support in English. Second, our license to distribute our version of McIDAS-X limits us to distributing to university departments, not individuals. Please ask someone from your department to request access to Unidata McIDAS-X on your behalf. When we receive that request, we will send along the conditions that the owners of McIDAS, the University of Wisconsin's Space Science and Engineering Center (UW/SSEC), require us to impose on non-U.S. education sites before they can get access to the software. I apologize for the extra effort that it will take on your and your department's part to get access to Unidata McIDAS-X, but there is nothing we can do because of the license restrictions that UW/SSEC has imposed on us.
