do you have old documents to copy into SignPuddle?

Hello Ingvild!
Great to hear from you. Your old work is valuable to all of us in the  
SignWriting community and it means a lot to preserve your work...and  
when you are composing new documents in SignPuddle, it will be handy  
to have those signs in your dictionary to translate from, and to refer  
to...so this is valuable and important work...

So send me your entire SignWriter DOS folders, and I can find the  
files for you...be sure to ZIP the folder before attaching it to an  
email message to send to me...that protects the files...in the past we  
had some problems transferring SignWriter DOS files through email...so  
zipping the folder is a protection...

Or mail it to me postal mail on a CD...if you know of others in Norway  
who have some old files they are welcome to send them to me too...

Thank you, Ingvild - this will be a real gift to the future...

We will slowly add the signs and documents to your Norwegian  
SignPuddles, one sign and document at a time...it may take time, but  
sooner or later your puddles will start growing ;-)

Val ;-)
