Hi <span id="gmail-m_8297771298720523850gmail-docs-internal-guid-d947f49e-7fff-4743-d3c1-74ac01f7f183"><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Quattrocento Sans",sans-serif;color:rgb(0,0,0);background-color:transparent;font-variant-numeric:normal;font-variant-east-asian:normal;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap">Daniele Giacomini,
Wow! What a nice project. I'm glad you used the SignWriting in Unicode (SWU) encoding. Thanks for sharing.
International sign language is an interesting topic with many possibilities. Using SignWriting to record sign language just makes sense.
Please keep us informed and let us know if there is anything we can do to help.
Regards,
-Steve
