You might choose to wait until fixing the syllable structure,
whose description seems quite vague -- not a critique, since
most of us basically put it aside, only having a general idea,
until we get the feel for what the language considers legal
or illegal; and only then (maybe) we get to the task of looking
at words and at our intuition in order to write down a syllable
structure formula. Which boils down to say that you don't need
(in this list) to present a new language as if you had done a
long study about it. We're here to listen, not to evaluate. :)
