No. They are equally set in stone. In case of contradiction, the dictionary will have the opportunity to remedy the situation under the "correction of error" exception to the baseline. Thus someone could legitimately accumulate contradictions in the refgrammar and amongst the various baseline documents, seeking that they be resolved where possible in the dictionary (or textbook) where appropriate, but for the most part we are not considering any substantive corrections to the cmavo (as opposed to the typo that Jorge discovered a couple weeks ago in the definition of gi) prior to the next baseline-defining book. A mechanism for doing this was discussed briefly at LogFest, but at the moment I think I/we have too much on our plates with Nick's books to focus on the desired methods to support this mechanism. I'll go into it more when I have the leisure to think things out better. 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
