[ANN] Major update of Lexvo.org

Hi everyone,

We'd like to announce a major update of Lexvo.org [1], a site that brings
information about languages, words, characters, and other human language-
related entities to the LOD cloud. Lexvo.org adds a new perspective to the
Web of Data by exposing how everything in our world is connected in terms
of language, e.g. via words and names and their semantic relationships.

Lexvo.org first went live in 2008 just in time for that year's ISWC.
Recently, the site has undergone a major revamp, with plenty of help from
Bernard Vatant, who has decided to redirect lingvoj.org's language URIs to
the corresponding Lexvo.org ones.

At this point, the site is no longer considered to be in beta testing,
and we invite you to take a closer look. On the front page, you'll find
links to examples that will allow you get a feel for the type of
information being offered. We'd love to hear your comments.

Best,
Gerard
