For my part, I curate the grammar-related resources on lojban.org,
this being the home page for that effort:
http://www.lojban.org/tiki/Grammar
This part of the wiki is still a mess; I'd like to think I'm
improving it. I'm in the middle of a particularly large project,
our so-called "Magic Words," and much of the work I've been doing
recently isn't user-visible yet.
Getting this section of the wiki in shape is really all I can make
time for, but it is also the section I care most about and really
want to see made better.
There are many sections on the website that could use curation, the
"See Also" section of the Grammar page 7 that need as much love as
the grammar-related resources.
If you see something that you can make better, please do so!
