[sw-l] Teacher's Conference for SignWriting in Europe

[Ingvild Roald]

The BIG International Congress on the Education of the Deaf  (iced 2005)
is to be held at Maastricht,the Netherlands, in the days 17-20 of July
this year. This conference is held every 4 (?) year somewhere in the
world. Last time was in Australia. Stefan is a keynote speaker this year,
on SignWriting. I have submitted an abstract for a paper, but not on
SignWriting.
