Very strange. Most jbopre are programmers or mathematicians. Still not progress in elaborating computer terminology.
lojban.org wiki seems to be incomplete and there seems to be no unified plan.
I created a spreadsheet.
Please add more lines for terms, add more columns (two columns for each jbopre, one for the translation, one for comments).

I'm glad for this initiative, gleki, but that problem is that so much computer terminology in English in metaphorical, and producing anything in Lojban with lujvo is extremely difficult, naljvajvo, and somtimes cimjvo. In my honest opinion, the ideal solution for pretty much any computer terminology would be to create zi'evla, based on a cimjvo. lujvo are powerful, I don't deny it, but sometimes, the learning curve incurred by a new zi'evla is justified by virtue of the counterpart lujvo's length and rule-adhesion, not to mention that there are some very specific places that would be nice to include in some computer-related terms that we just can't get out of existing gismu.
