Tony -
This is a fascinating idea. Great project, if you can stick with it
over several years. It is not something that will be devleoped
overnight...
My second thought...
I think you should contact another programmer, Antonio Carlos da
Rocha Costa in Brazil. Antonio Carlos has developed SWML...the
SignWriting Markup Language. He also works with artificial
intelligence in computers. I remember awhile back, I received a
message from Antonio Carlos regarding using SignWriting in handheld
palmtop devices...so these issues are something that he works with:
