Though it would be nice to have news > pages that describe the activities that are in-progress, It is far, far too late to take up that attitude to CLL. My first draft was developed almost entirely in the open, with chapters and even parts of chapters sent to the mailing list and critiqued by everyone. There is no longer any point where all Lojbanists collect together, so it's necessary to let a hundred flowers bloom and a thousand points of view contend using more modern technology. As long as a clear distinction is made between official and unofficial (which is a matter of attribution), there is no reason at all why in-progress stuff should be invisible, and every reason why it should not. -- John Cowan http://www.ccil.org/~cowan cowan@ccil.org To say that Bilbo's breath was taken away is no description at all. There are no words left to express his staggerment, since Men changed the language that they learned of elves in the days when all the world was wonderful. --The Hobbit _______________________________________________ Llg-members mailing list Llg-members@lojban.org http://mail.lojban.org/mailman/listinfo/llg-members
