Re: [lojban] Re: binary Lojban



First of all, the byte is an arbitrary unit. I said binary, not base 256.

Secondly, the post by Mark was sarcastic.

Third, I will continue donating to both Lojban and singinst.org. Money may seem
crass, but it is necessary to have a functioning organization.

I have written to Mark personally to explain why I was offended.

mo vi do

Quoting Robin Lee Powell <rlpowell@digitalkingdom.org>:

 Umm.

 First of all, how much you've donated is totally irrelevant to the
 task of making a byte-compiled Lojban.

 Secondly, Mark's not far behind you; he helps us get rooms at
 jbonunsla.

 Thirdly, there's no reason for that sort of hostile response.  It's
 not going to help anything.  Especially since he was *offering to
 help you*.
