I do like the Elian script but the lojban orthgraphy is already

standardized and there are so few people learning the language that

asking them to use a non-familiar seems not a good move to me.


That said, the best way to promote Elian script would be to typeset a

piece of lojban and send around for comments. I guess nothing will

change, but I love calligraphy! :)
