Hi Ingvild and Everyone -
I think both are easy to write by hand. And the first one looks more  
like what you want, so I suggest we stick to the definitions in the  
attached diagram for right now.

Usually symbols have to be used by several people for a period of  
time before we can be sure that they are working...so keep us  
informed on how Norwegian signers react to those symbols...You can  
show them both, to see what they would choose.

Thanks for your input -

We look forward to hear more about your work in Norway!  Val ;-)
