I somewhat share the concerns mentioned by Amir and Jan van Steenbergen. What I would hate to see is that we approve a project and then become a laughing stock because it turns out to be an unserious thing in one way or another.
Is there some proof here of any of: "independently proved number of speakers, use as an auxiliary language outside of online communities created solely for the purpose, usage outside of Wikimedia, publication of works in the language for general sale", as suggested by the admirable Language Proposal Policy?

Any other comments other than Michael's repeated approvals? ;-)
If not, we can move forward on this, but I'd like to hear the thoughts of at least a couple more committee members.

There seems to be something wrong with my mail server.

Hi all,
I'd like to hear your thoughts on the Kotava Wikipedia. Kotava is a
conlang created in 1978, mainly known in French-speaking countries (according to the English Wikipedia). They have a very active test wiki in Incubator, with more than 3,000 articles, which makes it bigger than the Novial Wikipedia (which we approved in 2008) and about the same size as the Lingua Franca Nova (LFN) Wikipedia (which we approved in 2017). There are several active users, and sustained activity for many months.
Does anyone have reasons for why we should not approve this project?
