I'll update my master per the text in Cowan's message cited (please bug me in a week to confirm that it is done). Please do the same on the official site versions, and change the modification date. I will send you my official copies when I've actually done it so that you can verify that we have the same thing. lojbab -- lojbab lojbab@lojban.org Bob LeChevalier, President, The Logical Language Group, Inc. 2904 Beau Lane, Fairfax VA 22031-1303 USA 703-385-0273 Artificial language Loglan/Lojban: http://www.lojban.org
