I have seen no further discussion. The following motion is now under consideration, and, if there are no objections, will pass by general consent on Monday at 18 UTC: To form the lojbo bangu cipra kamni, or LBCK, comprised of Matt Arnold and Mark Shoulson and whoever else the two of them appoint, as a committee empowered by the LLG to create a Lojban Certification Program, with access to up to $500 of LLG funds to pay for the writing of the initial tests. -- Arnt Richard Johansen Vice President, LLG
