The 4th Workshop: Corpora and Sign language Technologies

[Timothy W. Grove]

Thanks for posting this to the list, Maria. To make a long story short, 
I've just booked my tickets to Malta, so as long as that volcano in 
Iceland behaves itself, we are on our way! I'm not making any 
presentations or posters, but just hoping to learn as much as I can, and 
to have a mini family holiday as my wife and daughter are coming too! 
Anyone recommend a good hotel?

The topic of the workshop sounds fascinating and I'll be looking for 
inspiration. I'm working on a Sign language dictionary application for 
SIL in which we are using SignWriting as a way for notating signs and 
for searching for signs. A lot to do yet, but hopefully we will have 
something soon for testing. I'll just leave a little 'teaser' behind 
here before I finish...

Best regards,
Tim

p.s. Yes, the photos are of myself and my wife. We are not part of the 
software, but I thought I'd use this photo to introduce ourselves and to 
protect the innocent... ; -)
