<DIV>March 30, 2006</DIV>
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>Dear SignWriting List Members!</DIV>
<DIV>Our list has been silent recently, for a number of reasons, but I am
back!</DIV>
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>Good things to report:</DIV>
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>1. SignPuddle and SignText</DIV>
<DIV>Steve is working on some cool new versions of SignPuddle and SignText,
that should be coming in a few months...The new developments will not only fix
old problems, but will solve them in an important new way that paves the
groundwork for future programming...Thank you, Steve, for your hard work and
magical programming...</DIV>
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>2. SignBank</DIV>
<DIV>SignBank is being improved by programmer Todd Duell to work with the new
FileMaker Pro 7.0 and 8.0 programs. This is excellent, because this means that
later SignBank can receive data from SignPuddle and SignText...and the three
programs will inter-relate with each other. So 2006 should produce three
programs for SignWriting that work together:
SignPuddle-SignText-SignBank.</DIV>
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>3. Bible Translations</DIV>
<DIV>In 2006 people have been busy writing Bible passages in SignWriting!
There are several projects now...not only in American Sign Language (ASL) but
also in other signed languages as well...</DIV>
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>Regarding the ASL Bible passages that are King James version, in
SignWriting, you can read them and download them online. Go to:</DIV>
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>SignBible Site</DIV>

<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>Scroll down to see the many documents, which you can now read in PDF
format! Thanks to Pastor Dettloff and his Deaf Church, and to Jerry Spillman,
for the excellent web site!</DIV>

<DIV>4. So what is Val doing? smile...</DIV>
<DIV>Recovering from the flu...I am fine...and taking care of technology
behind the scenes...</DIV>
<DIV><BR class=khtml-block-placeholder></DIV>
<DIV>Hope to hear from all of you! </DIV>
