[lojban] word resolution algorithm
Buried in my discussion with Pierre, I recalled that the word resolution
algorithm was not proven in time to be included in CLL, though it was
intended to be part of the baseline language definition. At the time, I
said we could just add it into the dictionary, but the new policy does not
specifically allow for that (though the byfy could probably include
it). Updating and proving the word resolution algorithm would be a good
project for one person with the sort of mathematical-proof-of-algorithm
experience needed, and could be done independently, and a working algorithm
could simply byfy deliberations over what could amount to a raft of
corrections and change proposals in the orthography/morphology sections of
the refgrammar, which has numerous sloppy wordings.

has the version as it then existed, which I think used "iy" as a link for
non-gismu components in lujvo, which was eventually supplanted by zei
because we couldn't make it work.
Anyone who wants to undertake this, please speak up. It will be the byfy
and/or the voting membership declaring the baseline freeze that will decide
whether to include a final version of this in the baseline. I think it is
needed if someone can do it.
