My current estimate is for around 25 attendees so far, which will be a record and more than double last year's attendance. About 1/3 of those attending will be conversant in the language, about 1/3 knowledgable about the language but not yet able to hold a conversation, and 1/3 newcomers who probably do not know the language (but since I haven't met some of you, I might be surprised). As a result of our expected size, we will likely have multiple activities going on at differing levels of skill. Logfest is, however, quite informal, and the "scheduling" such as it is, is that we do whatever the people who are there want to do, counting on those more experienced in the language to help lead any teaching or conversation sessions. Friday evening is arrival time, primarily social. Saturday is when most teaching and conversation and other language activities take place. Sunday is dominated by the annual meeting of the Logical Language Group, which starts at 1030AM and goes till it gets done, usually 3-5 hours later, by which time a few people are starting to leave, especially if the have a ways to travel. Some people stay Sunday evening and even into Monday. If you are planning on coming, we really would like to know so we can ensure crash space (if you are sleeping here), and sufficient food. lojbab ---- lojbab ***NOTE NEW ADDRESS*** lojbab@lojban.org Bob LeChevalier, President, The Logical Language Group, Inc. 2904 Beau Lane, Fairfax VA 22031-1303 USA 703-385-0273 Artificial language Loglan/Lojban: see Lojban WWW Server: href=" http://xiron.pc.helsinki.fi/lojban/ " Order _The Complete Lojban Language_ - see our Web pages or ask me.
