RES: [sw-l] doubt about sign VLONI

[Honza]

Hi Val,

sure, you are right. Good job :)
If is the origin sign Spain the same as czech sign "Spain" (I suppose it 
is), so sign VLONI should be written in the same way.
If you try to sign this sign and just change handshape to ASL 
10handshape you get sign VLONI, but I am not sure with the written sign 
Spain - I think that the handshape should be white, shouldn't it?
If you start with open hand and then make this handshape you'll get 
another orientation than in this sign Spain.. maybe I am right.

so Val I hope you are fit again soon.
Honza
