latest update/rescheduling of Russian trip



Hopefully for the last time, my trip plans are being made.  I now expect
to be in Russia starting next Friday (2 October) until 24 October, and
LLG 'Central' will basically be off-line for most of that time, though
someone will probably monitor Lojban List for major breaking news.
John Cowan expects to be back around 14 October.  I will probably be a
while catching up on return, since I will be spending time getting used
to being a daddy to two children who don;t speak English.

I will be attempting to promote Lojban while in Russia.  An outstanding
quick-turnaround by Ivan Derzhanski has produced a Postscript formatted
Cyrillic/Russian translation of the Lojban brochure, tailored to the
Russian audience.  I will be distributing this in Russia, and one linguist
there has expressed willingness in helping us submit the text for
publication in one or more Russian journals.  A copy of the Russian
brochure will join the Esperanto brochure on the Planned Languages
Server before too long, I hope.  Until then, ask Ivan for a copy if you
would like it (Lojban looks cute in Cyrillic script, if a bit difficult
to get used to.)

No promises the trip won;t be delayed furtherm, though at this point almost
all paperwork is done, and we don;t know of reasons for further delay.
I remain unable to plan any stopovers enroute in London or elsewhere, due to
the travel restrictions.
