How complete is gua\spi? If it's as usable as Lojban currently is, I'd 
say it's very close to complete. So if you have some other texts about 
the language, more grammar explanations etc, it would be great to be 
able to read them.
Also, you mention that you translated quite a bit of text into gua\spi. 
Could you upload that text somewhere? I would like to see some actual 
usage of the language.

I don't have a problem with that, being that I'm a big proponent of 
mekso in lojban.

So bottom line, how realistic would you consider it to be that people 
could start learning gua\spi? Would you be able to support the learners 
if some bigger problems arose? Once more than one person (you) is at a 
good level in the language, the burden gets distributed and eventually, 
the language will get a life of its own.

In hope, mu'o mi'e la selpa'i
