Seconded. What you (all too occasionally, since it's in a dormant phase
right now) see of Thagojian is the name and a few phonemes from a conlang
that used to bear that name (and is now abandonned), and a large chunk of
grammatical structures and phonemes from another abandonned project
(Wenetaic), with an all-new lexicon, derived from PIE. I don't bother
keeping orderly archives, but I have (somewhat shuffled) stacks of paper
dating back five or more years detailing every stage of all my recent
conlangs.
