[Sw-l] SignTube Program for SW captions on videos

Mon Aug 14 10:27:01 UTC 2023

🙂
Since last Week, there is a new website, similar to sign2MINT. Only with
more fields. Not only MINT (STEM) (Math, physic, biology, computerscience)

www.sign4All.de

In the further, the entries from sign2mint will be merge in sign4All.

And I hope, the sign search will be improved.

Actually we are working at the app, which saves suggestions of sign.

Greetings Uta
