Developing the ISWA 2008 and 2010 symbol sets was a huge job for me. I sat for years designing each handshape in its many rotations dot by dot, saving them as pngs. Then Adam Frost creates the SVG of the symbols and Steve worked on a bunch of other formats and the auto rotations and flops. All of these symbols are stored in downloadable packages at<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://movementwriting.org/symbol" class="">movementwriting.org/symbol</a><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>bank. </div><div style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri; font-size: 20px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none;" class=""><br class=""></div><div style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri; font-size: 20px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration: none;" class="">So it was not just a large job for me but also for Adam and Steve and the Unicode committee and of course programmers like yourself Jonathan, and we have all invested our love and attention to try to make the ISWA work for over 40 countries and sign languages<br class=""><br class="">Considering how many thousands of people are using the 2010, I think it has done very well. I know there is nothing perfect about it. I worried a lot during the development of it because we all knew there can always be new handshapes needed.

I believe if the members of SignWriting community who had an issue the the thumbs, if they had easier ways of creating new handshapes and sharing them it wouldn't of been more enjoyable for them. Also for my hand shape selections, no all symbols look quite the way they should in each position as is. It would've been nice to have alternative handshapes that fit more with what they would like to choose, where they expect it or show them only the ones in ISWA 2010 like they have now.</p><p class=""> <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><img src="x-msg://1/index.php/inbox/attachment/filenameOriginal/dgiikaebineilaof.png/filenamefs/INBOX119293674863b0b3c9155732753e8e07639f3b" alt="" data-unique-identifier="" class=""></p><p class="">I'm not sure which ones were most problematic just right now.</p><p class="">I think the idea of composing new symbols from the pieces is nice.

This involves sharing the present study with society as a whole, especially with the deaf Brazilian community that uses the LIBRAS’ written modality through the SignWriting system. In this process, we hope to incite many people to share other HS that, until now, are not present in this inventory or in the proposed inventory by Sutton & Frost either, the latter who is also available for consultation on the platform.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 21.3pt; line-height: 24px; margin: 12pt 0cm 0.0001pt; break-after: avoid; font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: bold;"><span class="">Therefore, the expected result with this study is that the investigated and catalogued HS by the collaborative work done through public consultation and its respective registers in this research are that they are evaluated and validated by the system’s inventor, Valerie Sutton and her team, to posteriorly be implemented in the main software of textual production, transcription, and registration of LIBRAS’ written form by the SignWriting system. In this perspective, all the Brazilian users of the Written Sign Language through the SignWriting system will be able to do any production in reference of the Handshapes, that means, without any preoccupations with the Handshape that will be used because there won’t be any past barrier that forced its users to take alternative means to do so.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;
