Lojban - a human language that computers easily understand

Is it really a language computers can understand? There's an effort to develop a PEG for Lojban, but AFAICT it's the effort of a single person. Lojban's more visible BNF grammar is pretty massive and not at all easy for a computer to parse.<p>It's an interesting idea, sidestepping complex languages like English in order to bring the future of human/computer interaction a little closer, but I don't think Lojban goes far enough as it's still very complex.
