SignWriting Linguistics Society Conference - Call for Papers

[Valerie Sutton]

SignWriting List
May 19, 2008

Charles -
This looks excellent. I would suggest posting your official  
announcement to the Sign Language Linguists List (SLLING) and possibly  
to the TeachASL List as well.

To join those lists, go to these web pages and subscribe:

To join the
Teach American Sign Language List

Does anyone else know of other Lists that are Sign Language related?

Val ;-)
