Strange, your introduction didn't reach my mailbox, which allowed Christophe to
be the first to welcome you. Otherwise it would have been me :)

Indeed!
BTW You are not the only conlanger from Argentina; another prominent member of
the List, Pablo Flores, lives there as well. I think it is time now to found an
"Argintinian Conlangers' Association".

I think you are more prolific than many others on the List. I just started by
seventh language (Slovanik), but none of my languages is even half as big as
yours.

Well, my main language is Hattic (http://steen.free.fr/hattic.htm), but this
webpage really needs to be updated. From my other languages only Askaic
(Hattic's main sister language) and Vozgian (a North-Slavic language) are
represented by fragments in the List's archives, on Nik's site with the results
of the last Relay, and on Jeffrey Henning's Babel Text site.
