That would be the conlang created by Frank Valoczy.  He reached a point
with it, and then the page seems to come to a stop.  I asked him once if
I could pick up the project, but I too have never got around to it -
I've already done one Romance language - although it's still tempting to
do another: either neodalmatika or a Occitan/Mosarabic project (Hmmmmm!)

I wish I knew where that existed.  I did most of my scavaging for
Brithenig by hand.  Fortunately there are a few good books on sound
changes in Romance languages.
