The finitely generated full-dimension conjecture for closed subgroups

Let Γ(p)\Gamma(p) be the profinite automorphism group of the rooted pp-ary tree, let GG be a closed subgroup, and let Hausdorff dimension be computed in Γ(p)\Gamma(p). A subgroup is topologically finitely generated if it has a finite subset whose closed subgroup generated by that subset is the subgroup itself. The finitely generated full-dimension conjecture. The group GG contains a topologically finitely generated subgroup having the same Hausdorff dimension as GG. This is one of two conjectures proposed in increasing strength concerning finitely generated subgroups of Γ(p)\Gamma(p); the source gives no resolution.
