  Yes, I am also an Orkut user, as I am a Brazilian :).
 I think this project will not be successful in designing a usable language due
to technical reasons: Orkut is not a suitable tool for coordinating projects.
Differently from an e-mail list, when you post a reply in Orkut you lose
traceability about the order of the posts. This can revive discussions that
once were overcome. Moreover, I believe the project coordinator does not have
much experience with conlanging (my guess is based on the description appearing
in his Orkut profile).
 Anyway, I am observing the ideas only to learn something more about conlanging
(and "con-IAL-ing"), derived from people's comments.
 I think people that intend to design languages by committee should first study
how open source software projects are coordinated. Programmers spread
throughout the world evolve software concurrently and this does not turn into
chaos because of the coordination tools and procedures that have been set up.
Many lessons are applicable to language design too.
