[lojban] Re: zo'o nai sai
l think there is a good chance for the eventual dialectification of
lojban, since there is some feelings against some of the features and
restrictions as well as resistance to change. I think eventually that
could happen.

I presume he is referring to the news item that is commented on in
http://itre.cis.upenn.edu/~myl/languagelog/archives/003771.html . I may be
wrong, but in the context of his expressed dislike of the "la" discussion,
he is probably using the proliferation of conflicting code schemes in the
different police departments as a metaphor of the (perceived) danger of
dialectification of Lojban.
