    I'm sure there are.  But I never see them; only hear about them.

    For example, one would think that with all these fluent people,
    someone would have produced a in-Lojban blog and gotten a link to it
    on the home page.  Matt and a couple of others had blogs a couple
    years ago that were so-linked, but IIRC they were about Lojban
    rather than in the language.

    If IRC Lojban is so good, as some have said, someone could be
    selecting a "best of IRC" and making it easy to find.

I'm tagging sentences in tatoeba.org <http://tatoeba.org> to improve the
quality of this database.
I'm interested in stuff that I can find on www.lojban.org, preferably on, or linked to, on the home page. That is where the world sees what Lojban is. 


It has > 10 000 sentences in Lojban. Many of
them are taken from IRC.

Otherwise, it's hard to read the logs in search of good sentences.
What is good and what is not?
If you can't tell, how would you expect the average Joe not-yet-a-Lojbanist to do so? 



If moving all discussions to Lojban fail then you can ban us and
continue the old policy of non-proliferation of Lojban zo'oru'e.


That isn't "policy".  It is de facto reality.

        If a person can speak fluent Lojban why disallow him/her from
        BPFK and LLG?

    Who is disallowing anyone?

Sorry, I think I need to read those bylaws more carefully. Could you
remind in two-three sentences of the procedure and requirements of
applying new members? Is it too hard?


People seem to be figuring it out %^)


I agree. One of the recent theses on Lojban and FrameNet showed that
Lojban is a powerful tool for machine translation (at least potentially).

However, where are those other applications of Lojban shown by LLG?
I can't see any activities at all, neither in learning Lojban, nor
in psychology, philosophy, logic, mathematics ...
A lot of discussions on lojban list have tended to break down into questions of philosophy or logic rather than language usage.
