Re: [lojban] la .alis.



Actually, I rather like that idea.  (Although what I'd really prefer, as I do with any translated text, is a version with the original and translation side by side.)

The issue still remains, though, that would be good to have a consensus on these kinds of issues that the CLL doesn't talk about (as far as I recall)--quotations: how to mark them in text, if at all, if they're indented/new paragraph, etc.

How's this for a compromise: Michael gets to publish *{la .alis.}* with
whatever typography he wants, and at the same time the LLG publishes *{la
.alis.}* with standard typography via lulu.com or some other vanity press.  The
number of published Lojban books increases by two, Michael gets to publish it
as he likes, and the LLG combats his variant typography with a book that
newbies can point to or be pointed to.  Or everyone tells me why this is a
horrible idea that should never be spoken of again.
