Category numbers of SignBank

[Daniel Noelpp]

Hello Valerie

In the course of developing the new SignWriter Java I am
studying the SSS 2002 in SignBank again.

I have a question. The category number of SSS 2002
(the leftmost number between 1 and 10) has the following
meanings:

1 = Hand forms
2 = Movement and Contact symbols
3 = Face (mimics)
4 = Head (position and movement)
5 = Torso (position, contact symbols and movement)
6 = Arm and Leg
7 = Movements from the hip
8 = Position symbols
9 = Timing and dynamics (alternating, fast, slow, tensed)
10 = Breaks, pauses

Am I right?

Daniel
