ÁY buena! A veces lo m‡s sencillo es lo mejor. "Vocero" y "portavoz" subrayan la transmisi—n de la informaci—n, y en el inglŽs se subraya lo contrario -- la recepci—n. El "caller" solicita informaci—n, y solo despuŽs la divulga a los dem‡s -- de modo que 'representante', siendo un tŽrmino m‡s neutro, funciona mejor, creo yo. Mil gracias, David
