AW: [sw-l] How to write these Portuguese Colors

It technically isn't an ASL 3, as the fingers are bent forward, but I  
can see why Jorge would write it like that because it kind of feels  
like that when signing it. But when watching how Jorge signed it, I  
can tell you that it isn't an exact ASL 3. As for a spread G, I really  
don't know what that is.

I would also like to have someone who is a LGP signer say which, but I  
would suspect that it will be a while before we see something from  
that side of the world as it is almost 1 in the morning there.
