Talk:Updated jan Pije's lessons

Untitled
It's been a long time since jan Pije made his lessons, and the language has grown since then. Words have acquired new usages. New words have been coined. This is a place for all of the scattered bits of information out there (around the forums, wiki, wikibooks, wikipedia, jan Mato's sites, jan Kipo's site, and whatever other sources I don't know about) to be gathered up and used to update jan Pije's lessons. This is intended to be a single, comprehensive resource instead of having everything scattered all around the internet. The idea is to convert the work on the book into a collaborative project. We can use the discussion pages on Wikibooks to solve open issues in the book. Possibly we can publish a mature version eventually (which can be considered stable for at least a couple of years).

Some deficits that come to mind regarding the current lesson set:
 * The "li pi" construction is just bad. I still think it is a jan Pije innovation.
 * Community proposals have been created for time, calendars, number systems, spelling, writing/scripts, and so on.
 * There are 20-30 odd apocryphal base words that the jan Pije lessons don't address, although there is the one "old words" page on his site
 * set phrases (or what ever they are called today) are not really addressed, and this would be a lot of work
 * the lessons have only the minimal glossary. A full word list would be a fairly large document that would look like jan Matos "improved word list" or jan Kipos dictionary.
 * As a pedagogical document, it lacks progressively longer documents, ie. a reader section.

I suppose we need to come up with a coding scheme to indicate what areas of a page are under discussion or there are disagreements on.
