Only Lojban text is publicly logged from the main channels, so it's
difficult to measure the extent to which things were discussed in any
language except Lojban. I think I remember seeing a chart produced in
korpora zei sisku that showed that 2012 was the peak activity for
discussion in Lojban, in IRC.

Anecdotally, I feel that 2012 was a peak in discussion overall, but I do
not have comprehensive logs to prove this.
