I'm not a LLG member, so I can't official propose this for the next
meeting (afaik). However, as a member of the community I would like to ask that at the next LLG meeting the "lojban is loglan" statement
be considered for revokation.


There was a very difficult and expensive legal battle fought over
this, and those who participated in it would probably not want their
effort to be nullified, and historically Lojban is related to Loglan,
so at least for those reasons it would probably be difficult to
straight-out revoke the "lojban is loglan" statement. I think that a
clarification is in order, though.


How about something like "Lojban is a variant of Loglan".  Or
"development" or whatever.

Sounds good to me.

I like John Cowan's better: "lojban is a Loglan."

So do I. I don't think any logli (TLI Loglanist) that has looked at Lojban would disagree.
