Sign language projects on Wikimedia Incubator

[maria galea]

Hi steve and val!
Thanks for the info. I hope to give the wikibook a try soon, so will let
you know if i (and i probably will) encounter any difficulties.
thanks
ps: yep LSM is the acronym used for Mexican sign language - we only
discovered that a few months ago, we have been using LSM for so long now to
refer to Maltese sign language, we will just have to share that acronym i
think (and clarify if need be, when both languages are mentioned).
