Hi Gerard,<br>
<br>
There are several variations of SWML. <br>
<font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2"><strong>1. SWML-UCPel</strong>:
the original SWML Formats<br>
<strong>2. SWML-D</strong>: for WoordenBoek Online Dictionaries<br>
<strong>3. SWML-S</strong>: for SignPuddle Online Dictionaries<br>
<strong>4. SWDB</strong>: for UCPel Linguistic SignWriting Database</font><br>
<br>
I believe Variations 1,2, and 4 use the old symbol sets. (either
sss-95 or sss-99).<br>
<br>
I created SWML-S for the latest symbol set, SSS-2004 (or the IMWA).
The -S stands for simple. I initially looked at the SWML-UCPel, but
decided it was not an appropriate fit because it appeared too
complicated and it didn't use the latest symbol set. <br>
<br>
SWML-S was created from scratch and only has basic information: signs
in lanes. The latest version is 1.2 I believe. It should probably be
cleaned up, but it's been working fine for SignPuddle and SignText so
I've left it alone. I'm working on a new SignText that will continue
to use SWML-S. <br>
<br>
I'm also working on a SignText markup language that will include
SignWriting, Unicode, and graphics. It will be used for screen display
and PDF generation.<br>
<br>
FYI,<br>

On my blog Phil Boswell asked about the SWML site.. it seems to have
gone.. do you have a new URL or is there a new place for this
information ??<br>
Thanks,<br>
