I am pretty certain that we can get permission from David Brin to translate almost anything of his into Lojban, though he would retain copyright, since he has been very interested in Lojban for years. For most of the modern books that we might get permission for, we probably could not put English text up in a public-accessible place, but everyone would have to work from store copies, or perhaps a limited-to-translators file. -- lojbab 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: http://www.lojban.org
