jbonunsla (as organized by me, anyways, and no-one else has stepped
up) will not be at Penguicon this year, it'll be in the San
Francisco bay area.

Suggestions as to time, and in particular whether it should be
conjoined with an SF convention or just a bunch of Lojbanists in a
room together, would be very welcome.

I have a mild preference for the latter, but it gets draining after
a while.
