People can arrive early and stay late - usually the first arrivals are Friday evening. Much of Sunday is consumed by the annual meeting of la lojbangirz. which starts at 1030AM. Don't plan on getting enough sleep, but we have several guest beds; it wouldn't hurt to bring sleeping bags if it is not inconvenient, because we could have a larger crowd than usual this year (last year we had around 2 dozen). As noted, xod is planning to speak only Lojban at the gathering. Mark Shoulson was planning to try to be able to keep up with him, and be able to translate for him at the annual meeting (which we are not yet able to hold entirely in Lojban), and Nick Nicholas may also be Lojban-only if he is able to make it (last I heard he expected to do so). Last year, pycyn said he would try to make it this year, but hasn't yet spoken up. Other than the annual meeting there are few planned activities - mostly socializing and whatever people want to do at any given time. We find that people seldom get bored even without a schedule. No doubt some time will be spent discussing the dictionary and Nick's level 0 book, which may be close to publication by then. We usually have at least two IRC sessions so as to involve those who cannot make it to LogFest in the festivities; last year, the LogFest end of the IRC chats were web-televised by xod. People may propose other things they would like to see done or discussed at LogFest, and we'll probably plan to do as many of them as possible if the interested people show up. Likewise, we can add things to the agenda for the annual meeting if someone asks. If you think you might come, let me know. We ask for contributions of $30 or more to defray the costs (which tend to run around $500 a year). We provide food and beverages, and can accommodate some dietary constraints if you let us know. -- 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
