One thing you know about and I don't are the surface symbols. I
remember you had used them in a question you had asked Val about planes
and both hand moving together. Could you
explain the surface symbols?<br>

<pre wrap="">But I will be more than glad to give support as issues come up. One of the main reasons I visited Val was so that she could teach me one on one. Val and I both hope that I will be able to learn and be skilled enough to be a "traveling teacher" and teach workshops because we all know that traveling is hard on her now. I could try my best to also help online, but I now see that the one on one face to face is truely the best way. My best suggestion would be, if face to face is not possible, is to send writings to the list, then I will be able to give feedback, and with Steve and Val's great work with SignPuddle and SignMail as well as other areas, that is very possible. :-)

I live in Central America so one on one isn't feasible. The Deaf
communities owe a lot to Steve and Val for all of their hard work
which has made writing signs and especially online possible. Thanks to
the two of you!!! Your work is helping both the deaf and those helping
the deaf!!! I got my first glimpse of the working SignPuddle this past
week. I also took a bit more time online to check out the Instruction
Videos. Hope to get a bit of time latter to try them out more fully.<br>

What is currently the best way to pass SignText bookmarks to the
new SignPuddle1.5?<br>

<pre wrap="">Now, if anyone has a video phone or even a skype, we can coordinate a time to do a face to face. To be honest, that is the best way because ASL is my native language and I am very visual.

I am with Val. She has been teaching me all of the improvements that
Steve has done with SignPuddle. Wow! He has done such a wonderful job.
Now Val and I are working together and I am asking all sorts of
questions about the SignWriting system that have either been vague or
confusing for me. Adam,
That is really great!! Now you will be able share all of that lovely information with the rest of us when Val is busy on other projects. Is there anything in particular that you have found interesting or could be of benefit for the rest of us sign writers?
Congratulations on being part of the DAC.
Jonathan
I am even more excited now because she has invited
me to be a member of the DAC. She and I have talked about what my job
will be. Needless to say, I am very excited to work more closely to
make my dream of having my language be a written language with a
library of literary works. Just thought that I'd drop a quick note to
the list so that you know what is going on (and maybe why Val seems
quiet because she and I are working a lot behind the scenes. ;-)
