Different sources vary on this but I've asked Kairaba this very question
and he says it *is* indeed a macro-language they're translating into in
which Manding, Dioula, Bambara and a few others are considered variants
of N'ko.
It basically seems to cover both the Eastern and Western branch of
Manding as covered here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manding_languages
So I think we're ok with "man".

This probably isn't the right solution. "man" is a macrolanguage
called "Mandingo" but it doesn't include all of the Manding languages;
in fact it doesn't include Dioula or even the N'ko language (nqo):

Plus, some of the languages under "man" are written in Latin script.
Why not nqo?
