When you categorize a Sourceforge.net project, you may, among others, pick from the [http://sourceforge.net/softwaremap/trove_list.php?form_cat=18 possible data formats] (cf. the image on the right). One of them is Docbook (114 or rather 54 projects, depending on where you click), but they also have categories with 2 or even [http://sourceforge.net/softwaremap/trove_list.php?form_cat=734 0] projects in them.

When you [http://sourceforge.net/search/?type_of_search=soft&words=TEI&search=Search search for the string "TEI"] in descriptions, you get a list of 16 projects, while in reality there may be more, because [http://sourceforge.net/search/?type_of_search=soft&words=TEI*&search=Search search for "TEI*"] lists 38, some of them being misses, but some of them having e.g. "TEI-P5" in the description.

So here's a simple idea, very much in line with the current publicising efforts: '''get "TEI" listed as one of the topic categories at Sourceforge, and get all TEI-related projects to join'''. The trick here is not exactly in the number of projects (though 16 isn't bad, given that the whole of "SGML" has 18 in fact): it is in having '''"TEI" officially recognized as a data format category''' at its own software repository.

I have no idea right now whom to contact or whether it takes a single good argument or a hundred votes (hmm, how many would they gather for MCML, I wonder), but in case pressure is needed, surely we can offer it as a community.
