After reading the Leadership thread and many other old threads on this 
list, and taking into account my own views on these matters, which appear 
to be shared by a number of others, I have concluded that it is not 
unreasonable to begin a new logical language project. To this end I have 
started the Logos Initiative and Logla Prime 
(https://github.com/LogosInitiative/logla).

The intent of this initiative is to use a modern open source development 
model to build a new mainline logical language --in part a reconciliation 
between Loglan and Lojban, and via this model manage the evolution of that 
language. This is not something I have started lightly, but rather because 
I think it important. I think the world needs a strongly evolving 
constructed and logical language. One that continues to push the boundaries 
toward greater perfection in human communication.

I believe this new initiative will be of actual benefit to Lojban and the 
LLG as it will free the LLG to focus on the promotion of Lojban as a 
language of everyday communication rather than worry with the heavy barrage 
of linguistic "tinkering".

The initiative is, obviously, in its earliest stages. At this point, it 
needs the aid of committed and capable persons to chair the supervisory 
committee, expand the website, flesh out bylaws, and to the wider community 
of logical language enthusiasts, to submit proposals. Communication is 
facilitated via Github issues 
(https://github.com/LogosInitiative/logla/issues) and the Google Group 
(https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/logla).

I hope this initiative is received in a positive light, even by those that 
may feel a bit ruffled by it. In the end, it surely must be a more 
constructive approach than continually arguing against changes to Lojban.
