How is it licensed? We reserve no rights of any kind whatsoever; you can do with it as you wish. This was the issue that caused Lojban to split off from Loglan, in fact; the old word list *was* copyrighted. This: http://www.lojban.org/tiki/LLG+Web+Copyright+License&bl is probably the official notice for this purpose, but I believe there's a note somewhere that the gismu and cmavo lists are even more permissive. -Robin -- http://singinst.org/ : Our last, best hope for a fantastic future. .i ko na cpedu lo nu stidi vau loi jbopre .i danfu lu na go'i li'u .e lu go'i li'u .i ji'a go'i lu na'e go'i li'u .e lu go'i na'i li'u .e lu no'e go'i li'u .e lu to'e go'i li'u .e lu lo mamta be do cu sofybakni li'u
