Yes, I'm a conlanger.  And yes, most of my projects are auxlangs.  I'm
a member of both lists, and do see the reasoning behind separate lists
because of the different issues involved.  Conlang is mainly geared
toward lingistics and language engineering where Auxlang deals more
with the practicalities of various approaches to auxlangs and their
promotion.  People aren't shy about evangelizing their favorites
either.
