Hello Everyone!
Today one of my co-workers stumbled upon a blog-post about  
SignWriting, and the International SignWriting Alphabet 2008. It was  
posted last September, and some comments were made last November, but  
is a wonderful discussion...Take a read:

Ginger's Thoughts - Silvia's blog

Maybe some of you would like to respond too? I might later.  
Steve...maybe your new work with UTF-8...and the SignWriting MediaWiki  
Plugin...might be of interest to them...and other programmers here on  
the List...perhaps your perspective on programming using SignWriting  
will add to the discussion...

Isn't the internet wonderful? We are so fortunate to have this kind of  
ongoing communication...

Of course some of the comments assume that there is no way to write  
sign language, even after others explain that they are writing with  
SignWriting, but nonetheless, this kind of dialogue opens all of our  
horizons...

Many thanks to Silvia or Ginger for posting this interesting blog...

Val ;-)
