[sw-l] Adding Classifiers to SignPuddle Dictionaries

[Adam Frost]

Hi all,
I personally don't have a problem with it. The naming of the classifiers will prove to be difficult and require some discussion. Marking classifiers is a good idea. But if we are going to have many, I think that for the sake of keeping simplicity it would be better to mark with "cl-...." What do you think?

Sounds good to me....Stuart, Philippe, Adam, James and other ASL
editors...is this ok with you? We are trying to establish a format for
adding classifiers to the online ASL SignPuddle dictionary:

If you agree to this Nancy, and if it seems useful to you, you can try
SignPuddle to add your classifiers then...
