I have contact with Diogo Madeira deaf of Pelotas and Mariane Stumpf,  
we exchange e-mail in EscritadeSinais webforum. Here in São Paulo I  
know Silvia Lya deaf, she teaches signwriting to deaf children. Here  
in Brazil are many projects using sw but I think the groups are  
isolate, I intent with EscritadeSinais web forum help for union of  
groups. Same groups talk about or “of” deaf but not “to” deaf. I  
wanna produce SW NewsLetter for give information “to” deaf. Many  
books explain about deaf but they do not have acess to it. Deaf do  
not know what are talking their.Your information are helpfull to me.  
Thank you, Sergio Ribeiro

Thanks for this update, Sergio! So is your group in Sao Paulo? And  
now I am curious...How many people do you guess use SignWriting in  
all of Brazil?

I am glad you are bringing them together on the internet!  Val ;-)
