Why not simply {mi'e la .clalis} ?
No second- or third-person equivalent to mi'e exists in Lojban currently.
I don't see how this is relevant, {mi'e xxx} is the most common way to introduce oneself and I think it should be thought early.

This seems a good place to assign {ko'a} -> 3. ta goi ko'a me la .djan.
No, a good place to assign ko'a is in panel #2:
You mean, you want to assign ko'a to clalis? She's the only one in panel 2.
This doesn't mean "this is jan", it simply assigns {ko'a} to {la .djan.} without asserting anything else.
4.would not know about the relationship between {selme'e} and {cmene},
they would just guess it means "is named".
This would avoid using {se}, I agree it's too early, the nintandi
Um, except for the missing "used by namer x3", that IS what {se cmene} means. I don't see the problem.
{selme'e} and {se cmene} are exactly the same, I'm arguing that using the latter is more confusing for nintadni.
lovu what? gadri (lo) convert selbri into sumti.
right, I wrote that in a hurry. It's another reason I stand for using {vuku}.
