=Conlang learners project=
The conlang_learners project started in June 2009 to collect a group of people interested in learning a new conlang, discuss and decide on a conlang to learn, and learn it together.  We're using a  [http://lists.conlang.org/listinfo.cgi/conlang_learners-conlang.org mailing list] to organize the discussion.  On 1 September, [[conlang_learners/Voting|voting]] will begin; in mid-September after votes are counted and results announced, we'll dive in and start learning the chosen conlang.

  • PC - conlang was proposed by its creator for use in this project
  • free - conlang is released under some suitable license so we don't need explicit permission to use it for this project
  • P? - someone needs to contact the conlang's creator and ask if they mind us using it for this project
  • U - conlang creator's whereabouts are unknown, no one has succeeded in contacting them, address unknown
  • C - conlanger contacted, awaiting reply
  • A - email address found for conlanger is bad, could not contact with that address

The List

Conlangs whose feasability is under question

Note on geocities.com sites

Yahoo has announced that they're going to close Geocities later this year (2009-10-26), presumably resulting in a loss of data on conlangs (etc.) documented only on Geocities. I (Jim Henry) am saving offline copies of several conlangs' Geocities pages with wget, including all the conlangs listed above which are hosted on Geocities, plus Rex May's Ceqli. If Geocities goes down before we vote on what conlang to learn and you want copies of the Vabungula, Voksigid, Ilomi, or Adelic websites, let me know.
