I noticed in going through the online edition of Sign Writing for Everyday Use in Portuguese and Libras that several handshapes were missing from citation that I found in my travels in Sao Paulo, Porto Alegre, and in contacts in Rio de Janeiro.  Will there be a new edition of this book with examples from other dialects?
   
    (The modified T is not currently in the book)
   
   caranguejo (freshwater crab), modified R with thumb not currently in book)
   
  Third hand shape (modified W) I am not sure is currently in IMWA.  The thumbs don't touch.
