I myself was formerly in favour of rapprochement, if only so newcomers don't get posed the choice of Loglan vs Lojban. But if Loglan is now nigh-on extinct, there seems no point in rapprochement, though I would favour more actively applying the name Loglan to Lojban, to ensure that people seeking Loglan (e.g. by googling) find their way to modern Loglan, i.e. Lojban. I suppose what I'm saying is that if there isn't enough of a thriving TLI Loglan community to actually have rapprochement with, we should go the other way and more volubly declare Lojban to be Loglan. --And.
