"Lojban - A realization of Loglan" (picking n= its)
=A0
and we pretty much = realized that we were going to have the finish the language (i.e come up wi= th a formal grammar). =A0That took most of the year, and the JCB started th= reatening legal action in Feb 1989, which pretty much ensured that the fork= was going to remain.

The early copies of Ju'i Lobypli (under different names for the first c= ouple of issues), are somewhere on the Lojban website, and provide more dat= es and details.
