About Me
- I maintain a Lojban grammar parser, jbogenturfa'i. It is using a PEG parser I've also written, genturfa'i. It builds on the work of camgusmis and xorxes converting the Lojban grammar and morphology to PEG.
- I maintain a Lojban-related teaching website: lo do ckiku ma zvati. {lo do ckiku ma zvati} is the Lojban version of "Where are your Keys?", a language fluency game.
- I maintain some Lojban-related packages for the 本NanoNote.

My Lojban Notebook
My Project Notebook for Lojban-related activity.
- 3 Jul 2011 I attended jbonunsla 2011. I learned two new games that work extremely well with Lojban, Zendo and Lingo. I played two sessions of {lo do ckiku ma zvati}. Those games particularly expanded my understanding of Lojban a great deal. I'm the least proficient speaker here.
- 15 Oct 2010 I've added myself to the "Where are you Keys?" Google Map.
- 12 Oct 2010 I've got a scheme-based packrat parser parsing Lojban up to the "pause" non-terminal. This is a proof of concept of the technology I'm using, as it only handles comma, space, and EOF non-terminals. The parser is a bit primitive (I'm writing '*' and '+' expansions by hand) but functioning.
- 11 Oct 2010 I wrote Richard Curnow, author of jbofi'e, telling him about my porting jbofi'e to the Ben NanoNote. Richard is no longer working on jbofi'e, and has placed it on github to preserve the revision history. I'm thinking about adopting the project and maintaining it, though I'm not sure yet about adding features.
- 08 Oct 2010 I've ported jbofi'e to the Ben NanoNote.
