By quite a while (i.e., on my watch), but I reject the notion of exile,since we did keep in contact and use some Carter's ideas even after he was mainly devoted to creating his own langauge. We jsut stopped allowing him to expound his language in Loglan organs. <JCB remained intransigent towards a very few people involved in the split, but not towards Lojban in general. Alex made some tentative contacts with a view to more cooperation, but his illness and death has put that on hold for now.> Well, Jim being Jim, the distinction was not always easy to make, sincethe backchannels almost always ahd to go through one of those Judases. But I am glad to hear that the lawsuits and all were not intransigence. |
