At this point, I am just looking for reports and recommendations, not motions.

OK, here is a report on a film.

1. Overview.
I (Guskant) created a film "lo vliraitru" in November 2016. I think it
is worth being reported in LLG meeting and also being advertised
worldwide, because it is
-the first documentary film describing the Lojban community, and
-the longest ever film spoken in lojban.

2. Current status.
The film is published there:
https://vimeo.com/190637628
English and some other subtitles are available by "CC" button.
Attention, "Latin" option means subtitles in official Lojban,
"English" option means subtitles in Lojban dialects, and "English
(United States)" means subtitles in English. Sorry but Vimeo has not
yet permitted "lojban" being listed among the subtitles options.

The documentary evidence is listed there:
https://guskant.github.io/vliraitru/evidence.html

The sound track is on sale there:
https://play.google.com/store/music/album/guskant_lo_vliraitru?id=Bkp5pjmuisk3kxzbkecy4milxxe

3. Future.
- I am currently translating the subtitles into Chinese, both in
Jian-ti and Fan-ti. It will be available in a few month.
- I am also preparing the novelized versions of talking books, that
are EPUB 3 eBooks with Media Overlays and DAISY 2.02 / DAISY 3 audio
books, which are widely available by blind or dyslexia people.
- I will make promotion of the film every November to December in order to
-- celebrate the birth month of the film, and
-- invite contribution to playing the roles or to translating the subtitles.
("Contribution to playing the roles" is explained in the last few
minutes of the film.)

I hope the film will be one of the immortal works in the Lojban
history, inherited by the future Lojban speakers. Sorry for much
boasting.

mi'e la guskant
