That is a great name! I visited the site and as far as I understand it, it is like a radio program...and audio program...about news on Wikipedia-related topics. I look forward to listening to the whole program shortly...</div><div><br></div><div>And I look forward to the SignWriting portion at the end of the program...so I will write again after I have listened to it...too bad our Deaf List members cannot listen to it, but I will write again with a summary of what is said, for the List...</div><div><br></div><div>And yes, of course Steve and I will be delighted to be a part of a future episode! Thank you for inviting us to speak. Let's setup an appointment...</div><div><br></div><div>"Wikivoices" is a good name! Maybe someday, you can have a visual American Sign Language version as well ;-))</div><div><br></div><div>Steve tells me that the SignWriting MediaWiki Plugin has been downloaded 6 times so far. Steve is curious if we'll get any feedback. Feedback is very welcome...</div><div><br></div><div>I will write again with a list of possible questions and maybe the List members can help me finalize the list of questions for you...</div><div><br></div><div>More soon -</div><div><br></div><div>Val ;-)</div><div><br></div><div>Valerie Sutton</div><div><a href="mailto:Sutton@SignWriting.org">Sutton@SignWriting.org</a></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>------------</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><div><div>On Nov 4, 2008, at 12:22 AM, Gerard Meijssen wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite">Hoi,<br>With pleasure I may inform you that the latest episode of "Not the Wikipedia Weekly", a podcast with news about all things wiki does include a sizeable portion about SignWriting at the end. It starts round about the 15th minute of the cast. Now I am not really an expert on the subject on sign languages and SignWriting and we talked after the recording about it some more. We think that it would be great to have an episode just about SignWriting and the request for an American Sign Language Wikipedia. <br> <br>We have invited Valerie and Steve to be part of this future episode and it would be cool to have your questions about Wikipedia and Wikipedia for sign languages. So let us have your questions so that this episode may even more relevant and interesting..<br> <br>NB as we are giving "not the Wikipedia Weekly" more of a meta approach, the project will be renamed to "Wikivoices"<br><br>Thanks,<br> Gerard<br><br><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Ntww35.ogg">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Ntww35.ogg</a><br> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:NotTheWikipediaWeekly">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:NotTheWikipediaWeekly</a><br> <br><br><br>____________________________________________<br><br>SW-L SignWriting List<br><br>Post Message<br><a href="mailto:SW-L@majordomo.valenciacc.edu">SW-L@majordomo.valenciacc.edu</a><br><br>List Archives and Help<br>http://www.signwriting.org/forums/swlist/<br><br>Change Email Settings<br>http://majordomo.valenciacc.edu/mailman/listinfo/sw-l</blockquote></div><br></div></body></html>
