[lojban-beginners] "What is Lojban"



Can anybody help unravel the confusion surrounding "What is Lojban"
We appear to have two different texts under this name.  The first is 
a course authored by Bob Le Chevalier which can be found at 
http://www.lojban.org/no/publications/draft-textbook/lesson01.
This does not seem to be finished, but is superb nonetheless.
There are in-depth explantions for just about everything, but written in 
a way that anybody can understand.  The excercises are great too!
Question: Why wasn't it completed and why is there no reference to 
it in the Lojban for Beginners section of the Lojban website:
http://www.lojban.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=Lojban+For+Beginners&bl ;?
The "What is Lojban" referred to on the above web page is something quite 
different. This is an introductory booklet written by Nick Nicolas and James Cowan, 
certainly not a course.
Question: Why was it given the same title?
