I am pretty certain that we can get permission from David Brin to translate 
almost anything of his into Lojban, though he would retain copyright, since 
he has been very interested in Lojban for years.  For most of the modern 
books that we might get permission for, we probably could not put English 
text up in a public-accessible place, but everyone would have to work from 
store copies, or perhaps a limited-to-translators file.
