Auxlangs here (was: Tedious etc.)

*defensively*

I only brought up my auxlang because 1) I had actually begun to think
about it and 2) I *only* mean to discuss its technical details here.

In fact, JIAL is best classified as an art-auxlang, that is, my
personal vision of what an auxlang might look like, in the same
sense that Brithenig is Andrew's vision of what a Welsh-substrate
Romance language might look like.

I have *no* intention of getting involved in actually trying to
push JIAL as a Primary World IAL.  Life is too short.
