Congratulations on your many SignWriting workshops, Stefan. I know some 
have been in Hamburg, Germany?! I received an email message from 
Frauke L. Johns from Hamburg....Here is an excerpt from Frauke Johns'

So this is another possible study on SignWriting, collecting empirial 
data, which would be great! We need that kind of research...I did
