That's no problem, slow is good for me.

I don't think Gestuno has a code, although it should
considering that there is at least one Gestuno
dokument on the web at
http://www3.unesco.org/manifesto2000/pdf/gestuno.pdf
(does anyone recognize the writing system used there?)

Esperanto has had a code for a long time (which isn't
surprising considering an ISO founder was I'm told an
Esperanto speaker).  The two letter code is "eo" and
the three letter code is "epo".  So I guess Everson
would suggest using sgn-epo as he uses 2 letters for
countries and 3 letters for languages.


best wishes,
"Signuno".
