I haven't read that one, it sounds like it's mostly about auxiliary languages, which aren't of as much interest to me. I'm a big artlang enthusiast. :)
I go on and off the conlanging community; before I did the Harry Potter thing I learned Klingon and hung out with those folks. Now that I'm not as interested in fanfic, I have time to do stuff like the historical linguistics relays (which are organized via the zompist bboard, which is full of very smart geeks who love to fight about linguistics and everything else). But I always conlang for my own enjoyment, and always have.
