So, here's another option: what if y'all paid for some of my time? It turns out that my work will let me do 32 hours a week and still get benefits. It also turns out that my before-tax income is about $550 per work day (I would prefer not to take a pay cut). So I find myself wondering: if people in the community pledged monthly money for this purpose, could Lojban afford to have me doing a day or two each month of nothing but Lojban-related work? Would people even want to do that? Is my arrogance astounding or *what*? :D Comments to the main list, please. -Robin -- http://singinst.org/ : Our last, best hope for a fantastic future. .i ko na cpedu lo nu stidi vau loi jbopre .i danfu lu na go'i li'u .e lu go'i li'u .i ji'a go'i lu na'e go'i li'u .e lu go'i na'i li'u .e lu no'e go'i li'u .e lu to'e go'i li'u .e lu lo mamta be do cu sofybakni li'u -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "lojban" group.
