<br>
at the moment the Lexicon Committee is an Interest Group.<br>
<br>
I was wondering if you would like to become a committee and be listed as <br>
OSGeo Committee to get more visibility?<br>

There will be the OSGeo AGM on the 10th of September. Maybe you could <br>
present your work there aswell.<br>
