Dear SignWriting List!

WELCOME to Profa. Marianne Rossi Stumpf as a new Editor of the
Brazilian Sign Language dictionary online!

Charles Butler is already an Editor, so now there are two who can edit
the Brazilian Sign Language dictionary ...

Marianne is a Deaf teacher of Deaf children in Brazil and is the first
to use SignWriting in classrooms there. You can see pictures of
Marianne, while teaching SignWriting, on the web. Here are some web
pages to visit:

Plus...Charles and Marianne worked together on a four-language
dictionary in the past, so perhaps this new Sign Puddle for Brazil will
be useful...Charles has already added some signs to the dictionary:

Hope you enjoy creating the dictionary!

If you have questions, or need help, then post your question to the
SignWriting List...

We would love to hear from you, Marianne - How are you? And how is your
work in Brazil?


Val ;-)
