SignText license opinions

[Steve Slevinski]

Hi list,

Quick update... 
 
I will be releasing the SignText source code under the GPL.  I've 
registered a project with SourceForge that is pending approval.  I've 
spoken with Val and we hope to have an official package ready in January 
2008 that includes the ISWA under the OFL as well.
 
SignText documents will have 2 formats: XML syntax and a compact 
syntax.  Now would be a great time for comments and feedback.
 
 
XML syntax example (423 characters)
--------------------
<stml>
  <sign lane="0">
    <symbol x="10" y="15">01-01-001-01-01-01</symbol>
    <symbol x="20" y="55">02-01-001-01-01-01</symbol>
    <symbol x="70" y="17">03-01-001-01-01-01</symbol>
  </sign>
  <sign lane="1">
    <symbol x="20" y="23">04-01-001-01-01-01</symbol>
    <symbol x="50" y="57">02-01-001-01-01-01</symbol>
  </sign>
  <sign lane="-1">
    <symbol x="10" y="10">01-01-001-01-01-01</symbol>
  </sign>
</stml>
 
 
Compact syntax example (156 characters)
---------------------
01-01-001-01-01-01,10,15,02-01-001-01-01-01,20,55,03-01-001-01-01-01,70,17,0
04-01-001-01-01-01,20,23,02-01-001-01-01-01,50,57,1
01-01-001-01-01-01,10,10,-1
 
 
I am looking into writing an extension for MediaWiki.  Last year I wrote 
an extension to display SignWriting in MediaWiki.  This time I'll also 
try to integrate SignText as well.

Regards
-Steve
