I have the sense that the community is interested in seeing this project happen. And if it is going to happen, it needs to be supported by the LLG – no other organization has the legitimacy to administer tests of Lojban skill. What can this meeting do to put as few barriers as possible in the way of making this happen? How about issuing a call for a committe leaders? Do the remaining members of the committee have any opinion? Mark?
