I am not at all welcoming or willing to introduce any changes for Lojban. Moreover, I am in the conservative minority against dots before names. Like lojbab himself I think that Lojban needs users and not developers. Why I asked was mere curiosity, because the history of Loglan - Lojban split is a mistery covered with mystery - for me and (I think) for all other newcomers. mi'e .ianis To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to lojban-list-request@lojban.org with the subject unsubscribe, or go to http://www.lojban.org/lsg2/, or if you're really stuck, send mail to secretary@lojban.org for help.
