Technically not true: Following the formal declaration of the baseline, the LLG Board will assign a committee, probably a rump form of the byfy, with the task of supporting baseline compliance. Any person or group who creates a text in Lojban, or who writes or translates language description materials or language teaching materials in any language, may submit that effort to the committee for review; the committee may also choose to review an effort on its own without formal submission. That's from http://www.lojban.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=Official+Baseline+Statement&bl However, we need to finish the cmavo before we can even contemplate declaring baseline. -Robin -- http://www.digitalkingdom.org/~rlpowell/ *** http://www.lojban.org/ Reason #237 To Learn Lojban: "Homonyms: Their Grate!"
