Hi SignWriting List,<br>
<br>
I have completed the new SignMaker and the image uploads section for
SignPuddle 3. I am pleased to report that the SignPuddle 3 beta will
be ready next week. This release will focuses on dictionaries.
This is an important milestone and I am very excited.<br>
<br>
I have converted all of the SignPuddle 2 dictionaries over to
SignPuddle 3 so we can hit the ground running. I'm hoping that
every sign language involved will participate, so that we can really
polish our dictionaries. These dictionaries will be very helpful
when the new SignText is ready.<br>
<br>
Every sign language will have a public dictionary. Also available,
will be practice, specialized, or alternative dictionaries on
request.<br>
<br>
I could really use everyone's help. First, when the beta is ready,
use the software to add and edit the dictionaries. Second, provide
feedback, ideas, and opinions. Third, share this information with
others who are interested. Fourth, if you are able, consider
financially supporting my work directly through patreon. I know
this is a lot to ask, but I really need your support if I am going
to be able to continue developing SignPuddle software full time
along with administering the SignWriting websites. With so many
sign languages involved, it would only take a few generous people
from each sign language so that I can complete the software and
expand my efforts in new directions like the 2-dimensional font and
mobile applications.<br>
<br>
I will have a full announcement next week and hopefully include a
few explanatory videos to show what is possible.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
-Steve<br>
