I'd never heard of Jonathan's supposed rule either. If the guillemets are g=
oing to cooccur with lu/li'u, then my taste as to where to put them would b=
e the same as Michael's, for precisely the reason he gives.

My personal preference, tho, would be not to couple guillemets with lu/li'u=
 but to use one or the other: if guillements are used, then treat them as l=
ogographs rather than punctuation. I realize that's contrary to the Western=
 typographical tradition, but it seems more fitting to the spirit of Lojban=
, which aimed to have speakable punctuation.
