Are there actually any active Loglanists interested in such a thing?
I myself was formerly in favour of rapprochement, if only so newcomers
don't get posed the choice of Loglan vs Lojban. But if Loglan is now
nigh-on extinct, there seems no point in rapprochement, though
I would favour more actively applying the name Loglan to Lojban,
to ensure that people seeking Loglan (e.g. by googling) find their way
to modern Loglan, i.e. Lojban. I suppose what I'm saying is that if
there isn't enough of a thriving TLI Loglan community to actually have
rapprochement with, we should go the other way and more volubly declare Lojban
to be Loglan.
