Re: [lojban] Far away

I seem to recall being told that termsets (being confusing and almost never useful) were deprecated.

I also seem to recall that this (http://www.lojban.org/tiki/BPFK+Section%3A+Distance) is more relevant.

I further seem to recall that {vu} specifying the origin is no longer the case.

That doesn't work, because {vu} specifies the origin. We're (I assume Luke above is lukys on IRC) still trying to decipher this: http://dag.github.com/cll/10/25/
