The lojban.org web site was not the place to unilaterally have made whatever point you were making. This issue was discussed on the listserv a number of years ago, and as a result of this discussion links to loglan.org were added. If you disagreed with the mention of Loglan on the web site and with the links to loglan.org, the proper approach would have been to discuss your concerns either privately with lojbab and robin, or to bring the issue to the listserv. I was very disappointed when I noticed that the TLI Loglan references were gone, but I decided to let the matter go for a time, due to the recent death of JCB. But when I saw that the LLG Loglan baseline policy omitted any mention of TLI Loglan, I became very concerned. I realize that perhaps you (and others) don't really care about the history of Loglan and believe that my concerns about this issue are foolish. I certainly agree that that Loglan is dead, and I gave up on TLI Loglan long ago. But then, what's the use of trying to explain. Nao, buo no, levi vizgoi ga duodja lopo lentaa la Loglan.
