[CREATE] LGMx

[Pierre Huyghebaert]

I know that it has been put by Jon as a placeholder, but his "x"  
proposal reminds me the x of some TED conferences, called TEDx, to  
make clear that they are "independently organized TED events" (more  
info › http://www.ted.com/pages/view/id/258). Even if I'm not sure to  
like the comparison between LGM and TED, it can maybe bring a logical  
explanation on what is the exact status of these events. And the full  
LGM acronym acts as a clear identification. LGMx Scale 09, LGMxNZ'09,  
etc.
