Well, you can always try Slaviconlang.

Sure, a group needs a certain mininum number of (active) people to become viable. A Finno-Lappic (UraliConlang?) group would attract perhaps three of four active conlangers and a few other interested people, but that would be far from enough. It would be doomed to be eternally dormant. Really, I don't see any reason why the whole world suddenly has to be subdivided into regional conlang groups. Nothing should prevent you from posting about Seimi to Conlang (which I would welcome, anyway). Jan ===== "Originality is the art of concealing your source." - Franklin P.
