Hello Madson, Raquel, Steve and SignWriting List members…

As you can see, Madson, there are messages posted recently on the SignWriting List, all entitled: " [SW-L] New handshapes for the ISWA 2010 " that answers your email below.

Thank you for posting pictures of the new handshapes you feel are needed to write LIBRAS (Brazilian Sign Language)…

You offered to send Steve the artwork in Corel Draw. That sounds like a good idea. Please do that.

Steve is considering creating an Addendum for new handshapes, that will in time be available in SignPuddle. This will take time, but if you submit your artwork now, that is a beginning….

Send the artwork to me and Steve privately and we will keep this in a list in a file to be worked on later…

Thank you for informing us!

Val ;-)
