Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed From: Bob LeChevalier-Logical Language Group With the arrival of Mark Shoulson at 640PM local time, around three hours ago, LogFest 2000 has more or less officially begun. I am hoping/expecting attendance between 20 and 25, though not all of those will be serious students of the language. We're already having lively discussion on all manner of topics Lojbanic, Klingonic, Esperantic, and who knows what else. Mark has already mentioned one new idea used by the Klingon group that I will pose for discussion by the list while we contemplate it here - the idea of setting up skills tests for 3 or 4 or however many levels of skill in the language, and awarding recognition of achievement of a certain level of skill by passing the appropriate test. 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
