unfortunately, in these circumstances, the purpose of the foundation will not be able to

it is absurd that the langcom insist on maintaining a policy highly inaccessible, when
the world is already extremely restrictive
The fact is that, let's say, Yoruba language will have more native
speakers during this century than all classical, constructed and art
languages together. The fact is, also, that the number of native
speakers of Yoruba with access to Internet *today* is much greater
than the number of native speakers of all classical, constructed and
art languages. So, if we have some problems with hardware or so, the
first languages about we shouldn't care are classical, constructed and
art languages. If it is about some urgency, English and other world
(natural) languages are enough as lingua francas.
