This is the Official announcement (finally) of LogFest 2000, which will be 

held as usual at my house in the Virginia suburbs of Washington DC USA.

LogFest will be held the weekend of August 5-6, 2000.  Guests often arrive 

on Friday, and some leave as late as Monday; we can be flexible on 

accommodations.  Most attendees sleep at semi-random times using our 

collection of spare beds and mattresses, since activity and discussions 

continue at all hours of the night.  We provide food, asking an optional 

contribution of around $30 per person attending to defray the costs of 

LogFest (some generously give more %^).  Since you don't need a hotel, and 

can take the Metro subway to only a few blocks from my house (where someone 

can pick you up), this is generally the only cost other than getting here, 

unless you buy Lojban materials.



We are expecting to again have fluent Lojban speaker Nick Nicholas, and 

this year we also have the possibility that John Clifford (pc) will 

attend.  Lojban reference book author John Cowan will be there and will 

sign copies of the book on request.  A couple of other new people and 

distant visitors have expressed interest, but I'll not yet speculate who 

will actually be able to make it pending more solid commitments.

We are hoping to have a significantly higher turnout than in previous 

years, and more in-Lojban conversation, given the large growth in the 

numbers of people who are actively learning the language, but you needn't 

be a skilled Lojbanist to attend - we also offer impromptu classes and 

lessons.  There is no formal schedule for activities (there usually is not, 

as we prefer to be flexible to accommodate the interests of those actually 

attending and awake at any given time); in general Friday is for 

socializing and getting to know people, Saturday is the main day for Lojban 

activities, and Sunday is when we hold the annual official meeting of The 

Logical Language Group, Inc., as required by law (all are welcome at the 

meeting).  There will likely be scheduled IRC sessions to involve the world 

community of Lojbanists in this annual celebration of Lojban; times to be 

announced later.



The official meeting of The Logical Language Group, Inc. is called for 

1030AM EDT on Sunday August 6, 2000, at my house, 2904 Beau Lane Fairfax VA 

USA.  Official LLG members (you should know who you are) will be 

specifically asked to attend or send a proxy; if there are any issues 

requiring wider discussion, we will likely use IRC channel #Lojban or 

Lojban List to poll the community and membership live.
