    Minor point:

    lo rifcu famti po'u la camgusmis = rich uncle camgusmis (i.e. po'u is
    restrictive, not just any rich uncle, but rich uncle camgusmis).

    With no'u instead of po'u, the AKA translation would work better, "a
    rich uncle, (namely) camgusmis".

    More important point (aside from missing "cu"):

    "ai" doesn't say that others intend to help. It says the speaker
    intends others to help.

    Awesome! What I need is a list of those of us who are "yes" and
    "maybe" for attendance. My scheduling team needs that estimate, to
    choose the size of the Lojban room.

    Currently "yes":
    Matt Arnold (epkat)
    Robin Lee Powell (camgusmis)
    Stephen Weeks (tene)
    Elmo Todurov
    Bruce Webber
    Red

    Currently "maybe"
    Pierre Abbat (phma)
    Shaun Klein

    Some Lojbanists have expressed interest in sharing a hotel room. Our
    hotel, the Crowne Plaza, is almost completely out of hotel rooms. They
    might be all reserved since the last time I checked. So you might have
    to be in one of the overflow hotels. They are on the same block, less
    than five minutes walk. The cluster of hotels is next to the airport,
    so they all have shuttle service.

    Please, let me know of any questions about registration, travel,
    lodging, restaurants, or delivering presentations!

    Also it would look really good on the Lojban.org website to show a
    nice long list of Lojbanists you could meet there.

    Thank you so much!

    -Eppcott

    P.S. For Robin, I'm putting on the schedule an hour and a room, where
    only Lojban will be spoken. Spectators will be given pads of paper on
    which to write any English that they need.

    I like this idea of a Lojban-only environment, even if it's for just a short
    while in a small space.

    I'd gladly go, if I didn't live in... ahem, the other side of the world.

    I'm expecting photos, videos and people actually speaking Lojban.

    Luck.

    Well, if you want to present the LLG membership with likely travel
    costs, we could talk about it.

    Hey, hey, I'm not coming!

    Sorry for the confusion, but I'm currently, in the other end of the giant
    mudball, submerged in work and personal life, can't afford the trip money- and
    time-wise and would prefer to keep away from totalitarian states.

    Travel costs for bringing a camcorder?

    I'd need a visa and a travel ticket ticket from Russia. That is, at
    least, quite hard, unfortunately. Maybe next year.
