On the one hand you want us to explicitely include TLI Loglan among
our list of collaborators and friends, as acknowledgement of it's
existence and respect for it's workers.

On the other, you advocate plastering lojban.org with "loglan" and
intend your usage of "loglan" to mean "lojban" unless explicitely
stating otherwise.

Is it just me or is there something really wrong here? You seem to be
imposing a usage which effectivley makes Loglan more diffucult to
talk about. How is that respectful? I seems more like kicking it in
the teeth to me.

My concern is with those persons who were in the past interested in TLI Loglan, were never involved in the various political imbroglios, and now might be interested in LLG Loglan. I wish to facilitate their becoming aware of LLG Loglan, as I believe that will best allow them to pursue their interest in Loglan and will help to build the community of speakers.
