Yes, that's one of the great mysteries of IB.  For some
reason unfathomable the world has yet refused to
embrace the most natural, intuitive and appropriate
choice there can possibly be:  Jovianto, based on all
the world's important languages (like Jovian, and...
um...  yeah), with its familiar Latinate roots, the
wonderfully context-establishing mutations and sandhi,
and the orthography that orients itself after the soul
rather than the superficial phonetics of the language,
is beyond doubt The Way To Go.  ;-D
