I am the last person to consult on website design.  I'm just saying that 
a chronic complaint from new people and casual strangers is that our 
home page lacks current news, and that if people like you want more 
people to read Lojban, you should make sure Lojban text which will 
encourage discussion should be on the home page or some other place 
where people will quickly page to.  In the past Matt was encouraging 
discussion with a blog, so it seems like a timely blog, in language, 
possibly with multiple contributors, would be the sort of thing that 
will encourage what you want.  I would ask Matt for other ideas - he was 
the one with ideas and enthusiasm for promoting Lojban.  I'm of the 
wrong generation to know how to appeal to youngsters (i.e. people under 
50 %^)

What thread?  "End vowel for slot" doesn't seem like that sort of thing.
