Actually I suspect that there is nearly as much work producing SVG files
as there is in creating the original PNGs. Probably means I have to be
very relaxed with this project.

It was great fun. Especially meeting champions of SignWriting like Stefan
Wöhrmann and Ingvild Roald plus all the others working selflessly to
promote the use of SignWriting in education, research, publishing and
professional development.

Daniel and Lars gave their presentations during plenary sessions, which
Shane and Kathleen led. I led the afternoon computer workshops; hope to
have a brief report ready tomorrow.

Most of the time that was Mindy, one of our very hard-working
interpreters.

Pity you couldn't have watched the individual introductions but those took
place later --- well past your bed time.

The videophone worked well. Attendees didn't know that you were going to
talk to us all until the lat moment; we kept that secret.
