Is this official?

From what I recall from the GDF_Hannover GRASS user map [1], we have
at least 40 OSGeo users here in Brasil.
Obviusly I was thinking about this issue, not sure how to proceed on it.
It should nice to show people higher up (government, institutions,
etc) that we have a user base and local knowledge on the subject.
