I'm not sure if I'm going to actually get around to doing the
concordancing thing.  I've been spending quite a bit less time on
lojban stuff lately (I haven't even finished my translation of 'To
build a fire', which I started like a month ago).  I don't know if
I'm becoming less interested or what, but at least I need a break
from the constant "Let's completely redo working parts of the
language, like the meaning of 'le' and 'lo'" crap.

This is precisely what I am afraid jboskeism will do to the entire
language community.  Please keep the faith Jordan; I think that the
community mostly agrees with you, and I also think that Nick will do
what is necessary to get us out of "completely redoing" mode.  (Of
course Nick seems to think that my confidence in him is misplaced
because I complimented him and not And.  The difference is that I think
Nick is trying to make the status quo work to his rigorous standards.)

(Maybe what I really need is to just unsubscribe from jboske again).

This seems to be what Nick is suggesting for me as well.  Let's try to
do something productive.
