Indeed - the reference grammar is complete, and in final review (and I am spending a good deal of time reviewing it to make sure it will last). We are especially interested in the comments of newcomers to the language on this document, the latest version of which is on my personal ftp site (ftp.access.digex.net /pub/access/lojbab/refgram.zip or .../*.txt if you want the files unzipped.) BTW, our long-time supporter at Yale is graduating, and the current Yale ftp site will be moving in the near future. If it goes away, the material will still be available on the Web from Veijo's Finland Lojban home page, and Veijo has offered to maintain a long-term copy of the ftp site there once he recovered from hard disk crash. But we will be looking for a long term US-based solution, and may end up hosting the Lojban home page here at digex, though it will cost money to do so. Send comments on the reference grammar to my address and to cowan@ccil.org We intend to have the book ready for publishing, if not alrady published, by LogFest in early August. (BTW, anyone who is interested in coming to LogFest here in Fairfax VA near Washington DC should let me know. We intend to put out the official announcement in a couple of weeks, but don't wait if you need to make plans. lojbab ---- lojbab lojbab@access.digex.net Bob LeChevalier, President, The Logical Language Group, Inc. 2904 Beau Lane, Fairfax VA 22031-1303 USA 703-385-0273 For the artificial language Loglan/Lojban, see powered.cs.yale.edu /pub/lojban or see Lojban WWW Server: href="http://xiron.pc.helsinki.fi/lojban/"
