Hello Maria and everyone on the SignWriting List!

On October 10, 2006, SignWriting was registered as one of the "World Scripts", by the International Bureau of Standardizations (ISO).

Go to:

ISO 15924 Registry of World Scripts
http://www.unicode.org/iso15924/iso15924-codes.html

and scroll down. 

SignWriting is categorized as:
Sgnw, 095, SignWriting, SignEcriture, 2006-10-10



When you go look up SignWriting in the English Wikipedia, you will see this information to the right on the page, in a box…

Hope this helps, Maria!

Keep asking questions to the SignWriting List - someone will answer ;-))
