The official name of the language is "lojban: a realization of >Loglan." What is inappropriate about having the *official name* of the >language in the title of the lojban.org web page? I would oppose >"fooling" search engines. I would support having the lojban.org web >presence reflect reality. Loglan: The Logical Language (your proposed title) includes neither the offician name ("Lojban: A realization of Loglan") NOR the first word of that official name, which is the name by which EVERYONE BUT YOU calls the language. BTW, I doubt very much that Jordan needed two copies of that last mail.
