There are a few issues about the morphology and the formal grammar that have to be settled also, but unless you are into formal grammars, you would probably never be aware of them when using the language. > In any case, given the large number of camvos, and the > possibility of endless (?) discussions on each of them, this could take many > many years. Am I right? It's not so much endless discussions that prevent completion, it's rather the endless periods of inactivity. You can see what has been done and what remains to be done here: There are some cmavo that nobody can be bothered to write good definitions for, probably because nobody ever uses them at all. These cmavo won't raise endless discussions, they won't even inspire a single person to sit down and write a definition. mu'o mi'e xorxes
