There's a person who signs his/her posts "iisem" who occasionally
posts to the list.  Mostly, though, s/he appears to stay in lurk
mode.

Yes, indeed, very nice!  One of several Uighur-inspired conscripts
out there (you can't knock good source material).  It reminds me
very much of the script of a conlang called Ai Chaan Syaa, the
brainchild of a now long-lost email correspondent of mine.  I wish
I could remember his name.  He joined the Conlang list about the same
time as I did (lo these many years ago), but never posted much, and
soon dropped off the list, or went into permanent lurk mode.
Ai Chaan Syaa was pretty and highly original conlang, with three
genders (Solid, Liquid, and Air, I think) and complex verb
conjugations involving discontinuous morphemes.  One distinctive
feature I remember is that yes/no questions were marked by
voicing all of the voiceless consonants in the sentence!
