[lojban-beginners] Whitespace in written text

[Joshua Choi <joshua@choi.name>]

Hello everyone,

I'd like to ask—seeing that written cmavo are often clustered and  
Lojban is intended to be unambiguous in speech—is whitespace  
completely optional and ignorable in written Lojban (with the  
exception of dipthongs)? For instance:

  la mari,as. ninmu .i dunda fi la .alis. fe le cukta .i ta blota .i  
ti cmalu be le ka canlu bei lo'e
  ckule be'o nixli be li mu bei merko be'o bo ckule la bryklyn. loi  
pemci la mela nu,IORK.
  prenu la jecta. ni'o

The latter two are a lot harder to read for humans, of course, but are  
they still valid Lojban, assuming that I didn't make a typo? (I've  
been trying out writing like this in a journal lately to force myself  
to carefully look at and parse what I write. It also makes it easier  
for me to read the text aloud, simulating the stream of sounds that  
I'd say or hear.)
