  Whoa, whoa whoa!  I never said I wasn't interested in the project,
nor did I meant to imply that about others.  I was talking
specifically about one  or two points (capitalization in particular,
and to a lesser extent, the period at the beginning of sentences in
front of an rather than the end of setnences) that seemed to be a very
large sticking point for almost everyone, with people on both sides
(you on one side, and virtually every lojbanist on the other)
entrenched in their positions.  You've listened to our positions, and
you are going to make your decision one way or the other by ultimately
whatever criteria you judge best.  Those are the realities.  I think
everyone is pretty much on your side with regards to other punctuation
issues, (at least for purposes of this project), which are basically
treated neutrally withing lojban.

  Good luck to you, whatever you decide.
