I'd personally be interested in learning gua\spi, and should it be dead= , working on it maybe. Perhaps we can use it to test some ideas for loccan3= ?

First of all, sorry if this doesn't belong here, but I'm trying to = find more info about gua\spi, and I know for a fact that at least some jbop= re had some involvement with it. (And it's a sister language of lojban)=
I read the "Introduction to Gua\spi" and the "Gua\spi Refere= nce Manual", but I felt that those texts were not enough to really get= to a point where I could even construct a single bridi. In fact, had I not= had a lojbanic background, I would probably not have understood any of it.=
I read that the inventor James Carter is not working on the language anymor= e, but maybe he'd be interested in getting back into it, if there was a= n audience of interested people.
I know that John Cowan came to Lojban *from* Gua\spi, so please, could you = share some of your experiences with the langauge and maybe even point me in= some direction? (I really hope the language is hopelessly dead, like anoth= er conlang I once wanted to learn, only to find out that the author had aba= ndonned it.)
If anybody knows of any other learning materials for this langauge, and a m= ore easily searchable dictionary, I'd be very grateful to be made aware= of them.
