LFK
The LFK (i.e. "Lojban Committee"; Lojban: "lojbo fuzykamni" or "lyfy") is a standing committee of the LLG. It succeeds the BPFK and is charged with: improving formal descriptions of Lojban; elaborating under-documented language features; responding to issues that arise in usage; and maintaining language documentation and instructional materials. The LFK is also charged with: soliciting and evaluating comments from members of the Lojban community related to these purposes; encouraging volunteer activity related to these purposes; and generally promoting the growth of the language community.
Meeting Place
The LFK currently holds its discussions in the #LFK channel on the Lojban server at Framateam.org (https://framateam.org/lojban). Meeting place changes, if any, will be announced on this page and elsewhere.
The LFK welcomes to its meeting places everyone who would like to observe the discussion, share ideas or otherwise participate.
