all! As some of you know, I am (slowly) working on a book about SW – its
development and use across different international sites (including the
transnational listserv). As part of this research I’ve traveled to visit
Valerie and some other list members, such as Stefan and Maria. I’d love to visit
everyone on the list (at least, every one who was willing!) but unfortunately
my limited funding won’t allow that. Still, I really want as many interested
SignWriters as possible to participate in the book. To that end, I have an
idea and I’m curious what you all think about it.</span></font><u></u><u></u></p>

<p><font face="Arial" size="3"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial">What
if we selected some kind of passage that all of you who were willing could
translate into your respective sign language and write up using SW? I could
devote a chapter of the book to these different texts, which would allow for
a comparison across both different sign languages and different ways of using
SW. Each writer could perhaps reflect on the choices they made in translating
and writing their document, including perhaps how their backgrounds/goals
affect these choices. And perhaps participants could also provide their own
thoughts about what we can learn from the comparison of these texts. </span></font><u></u><u></u></p>
