I'm not aware that this is the case, and we don't really have any idea how many and who will be BPFK members in the future. The point is that a BPFK chair who chooses all members, could easily choose those of some sub-community to skew the language. I'm not sure how likely this is, but my instincts were trained in the context of JCB's community, where such things seemed much more likely. > Then who decides?

I don't understand the question. lojbab _______________________________________________ Llg-members mailing list Llg-members@lojban.org http://mail.lojban.org/mailman/listinfo/llg-members
