Admittedly, we haven’t heard anything from the Ido and Interlingua leadership yet. But, there have been some dealing and wheeling behind the scenes.
Something’s brewing and we think that it is for the better.
So, check back often, because this site is about to change.

We are officially inviting the Ido and Interlingua organizations and their members, so we can start the process of deciding which of the two languages would be the best compromise, or be the most acceptable to the masses.
Also, if there are issues with the particular language that need to be worked out (such as deciding on the particles, in Interlingua) we need to finalize those as well, so we can move forward with promotion and marketing, as well as generating materials, like learning tools, literary works, audio programs and music, video programs, etc.
Obviously, all other groups and interested parties are welcome.

As always, much is being made about the fact that our project arrived at Ido and Interlingua as a proposed auxiliary langauge, and not something else.
People are having intense discussions about this, and some even stated that they refuse to join One World, One Voice for the simple fact that they like another language.
These people are missing the point. Continue reading ‘Why Ido and Interlingua, and Why Not Some Other Language?’ »
Apparently our project struck a nerve with a lot of people, despite the fact that our site has only been operational for a few days.
Our Alexa rating is going through the roof and we appreciate that, but the questions just keep coming. We would like everyone to post comments on the site, instead of emailing us, but here are the answers to some of the questions.
“Did you finalize the language selection process?”
No. We simply researched all available information on the question of auxiliary languages, and used objective and subjective criteria to narrow it down to two, or possibly three, candidates. In the end we found only two auxlangs that met most of the criteria and those were Interlingua and Ido.
“Do you belong to a particular auxlang group?”
No. We try to be as neutral, and as objective as possible.
“What if the whole process turns into a big mess?”
If for some reason the project turns into a circus, and there can be no agreement, we are prepared to go at it alone. In that case we would select the best option available and would work with individuals and groups that support it. However, failure is NOT an option.
These are just a few of the things people are wondering about, but I repeat… please use the site to pose questions and to make comments. We need everyone to be able to contribute to the ongoing dialogue.
So, don’t be shy… Make yourself heard!

Some people are wondering why we didn’t choose a more “politically neutral” language, such as Loglan or Lojban.
To answer that question, we must define what “politically neutral” means.
Politically neutral supposed to mean that something is free of political bias. However, there is no real way of measuring such criteria, because it falls into the realm of subjective factors. After all, a Chinese or Japanese person may not object to a Euro-centric auxlang, because personally they don’t have anything against the concept.
