Back to constructive news.

*Dictionary.*
Currently la ilmen, la gleki (and maybe la jelca) are slowly working on
proofreading tatoeba.org database of sentences. They have checked ~800 out
of 11 000 Lojban sentences by far. I think it's necessary to finish all of
them since those are sentences that various people tried to translate to
Lojban in past, that is sentences people were interested in.

Interesting that each contributor to this project can proofread every
sentence even if it's already proofread by another contributor AND WITHOUT
overwriting someone else's work.

Concurrently there is some work on several dictionaries with examples. E.g.
I myself consulted Lojbab a few times to fetch historical=original vision
of gismu place structures

*Chrestomathy.*
Concurrently people translate texts from English here and there thus de
facto resurrecting the once official LLG project for a chrestomathy and
populating corpora of parallel texts.

I think we already have enough texts to publish a chrestomathy. Dialectal
differences are usually not too huge to quickly adapt a given text to
"official Lojban" whatever is chosen to be called by that name.

*Other.*
Apart from updating CLL, Dictionary and Chrestomathy are there any major
projects that want resurrection? Tutorials for beginners are probably too
hard to discuss, no?
