To be honest, I'm not mad about both possibities.
I think I will vote for a third option (and since it
was originally my idea :)), I don't mind at all to
throw it in):
The title should be in a conlang... I could even
imagine a construction, in which every issue has a
different title, or rather, the same title in another
language (for example the language of its major
contributor).
The subtitle then could remain: "International Journal
of Language Creation" (or just: "Conlang Bulletin")
