First Millennial Foundation (for colonizing space):<br />
<br />
Dave Barton is recommending Lojban and wishes to use some document or excerpt to publish in its house organ. It was agreed that he can do this provided it is mentioned that LLG does not, as an organization, specifically endorse the First Millennial Foundation.<br />
<br />
Pricing and marketing of existing book:<br />
<br />
Discussion of markets:<br />
<br />
* Lojban community: many feel about $30-$40 would be good.<br />
* Potential discounts for JL subscribers, who have effectively loaned the Group their money all this time), and donators of at least some lower-limit amount.<br />
<br />
* Academia: linguists, libraries (which expect 20% off cover price).<br />
* Bookstores (expect 20% off, 40% for big stores)<br />
<br />
* Distributors (expect 35%-50% off)<br />
<br />
Suggestions:<br />
<br />
* Sell at conventions - on consignment, at talks.<br />
* Promote donations to local libraries or clubs.<br />
<br />
Standard recommended in industry for cover price is 7-8 times printing price, $3 per book for order fulfillment.<br />
<br />
Royalty?<br />
<br />
Multiply in-organization distribution sites may be a possibility.<br />
<br />
Printer prices (estimated):<br />
<br />
Technographics:<br />
<br />
* 800 pages at 6x9 = $10,000 for 1,000<br />
* 600 pages at 10x7 = $12,000 for 1,000<br />
<br />
* 600 pages at 81/2x11 = $14,000 for 1,000<br />
* new press next month will handle larger page count, and they believe the price will be comparable to the $10,000. $8-$14 cost per copy x 7 = $56 - $98 cover price.<br />
<br />
Committee to investigate and/or implement on-line ordering: Mark Shoulson chairman.<br />
<br />
* MOVED: That list price of book be $50; prepaid orders postmarked by September 30, 1997 be $35; other paid orders postmarked through March 31 be $40. - AMENDED.<br />
* AMENDMENT: That list price of book be $48; prepaid orders postmarked by September 30, 1997 be $35; other paid orders postmarked through March 31 be $39. - AMENDED.<br />
<br />
* AMENDMENT: That list price of book be $48; prepaid orders postmarked by September 30, 1997 be $35; other paid orders postmarked through March 31 be $39. But, Board of Directors can extend the dates. - PASSED.<br />
<br />
(Meeting recessed 12:48 - 1:30)<br />
<br />
Mark Shoulson comments before leaving:<br />
<br />
* Baselining: Has been promised for too long to go back.<br />
* Dictionary: Lujvo not ready because ad hoc. Marking with different font is OK; forcing 2 look-ups is not OK.<br />
<br />
* Marketing: Get the word out. Groups: science-fiction, philosophy, debate, conventions.<br />
* Prices: Member discounts without time limit.<br />
<br />
* Royalty: Support.<br />
* Textbook: No opinion. Mini-lesson and diagrammed summary good. Pocket-size wordlists - good.<br />
<br />
* Trinkets.<br />
* Getting people to use: Even 3 or 4 words of Lojban in 1 simple activity is good. Get conversations started. Conversations on list of max of 5 lines of Lojban. Mildly recommend MU or MUSH.<br />
<br />
* Print run: 1,500 reasonable at $13,000; 2,000 too much.<br />
<br />
Baselines:<br />
<br />
* MOVED: That LLG accept the reference grammar as submitted to the printer as the embodiment of the December 31st baseline - PASSED.<br />
* MOVED: That, in place of the June 30th baseline, we baseline the gismu, cmavo and rafsi as of September 30; and, that the members request the President to move toward a baseline of the lujvo ASAP - AMENDED.<br />
<br />
Discussion on whether (and which) lujvo to baseline.<br />
<br />
* AMENDMENT: That, in place of the June 30th baseline, we baseline the gismu, cmavo and rafsi as of October 31st or a date deemed reasonable by the Board of Directors; and, that the members request the President to move toward a baseline of the lujvo ASAP - PASSED.<br />
<br />
Next book:<br />
<br />
* MOVED: That the next book be the little dictionary with gismu, cmavo and rafsi - AMENDED.<br />
* AMENDMENT: Membership indicates the desire that the next book be the little dictionary with gismu, cmavo and rafsi - AMENDED.<br />
<br />
* AMENDMENT: Membership indicates the desire that the next book be the little dictionary with gismu, cmavo and rafsi, EBNF grammar, YACC grammar and lujvo-making information - PASSED.<br />
<br />
The 5-year baseline:<br />
<br />
* MOVED: That the condition to be met for a baseline that we deem to have fulfilled our current commitment to the Lojban community be: Publishing a reference grammar, publishing a cmavo/gismu/rafsi list, a published lujvo list. Said baseline to continue for 5 years from the latest publication date of the 3 items. And, this should be concluded as soon as possible - PASSED unanimously.<br />
<br />
The Digex bill has doubled because of all the kept data.<br />
<br />
Unresponding members (untabled):<br />
<br />
* MOVED: To reconsider action on non-responding members - PASSED.<br />
* MOVED: Whereas Sylvia Rissel failed to respond to last year's proper notice of meeting by attending or giving proxy, and whereas she has not attended or given proxy for this year's meeting, and whereas extraordinary efforts to reach her during this year's meeting have been made and have failed, therefore be it resolved that Sylvia Rissel be deemed to have resigned her membership in the LLG in accordance with bylaw Article 3 Section 3 without prejudice to her restoration as a member at some future time. LLG regrets the necessity of this action but believes that its organizational members must carry out their minimum duties to remain members. - PASSED (with 7 abstentions).<br />
<br />
* MOVED: To adjourn meeting. - PASSED.<br />
<br />
The ninth Annual Meeting of the Members of The Logical Language Group, Inc. was adjourned at approximately 3:38 PM EDT.<br />
<br />
I certify that the above motions were presented to all members present for discussion and approval, and that all motions were approved as noted. I further certify that these minutes are an accurate representation of the ninth Annual Meeting of the Members of The Logical Language Group, Inc.<br />
