So rather than overwhelming everyone, myself included (grin), I can share with you that I have already started working on the beginnings of a SignWriting Linguistics Forum that I hope to announce in the Fall. The first article in the new Linguistics Forum will be an article comparing notation systems. Three others and myself are working on this idea. But this is not really answering your questions, Leslie! So I will give you two articles to read on the web, that touch on these questions a little: Controversial Approach to Communication: SignWriting, The "Alphabet" of Signs by Alexandra Han; Columnist Published in Silent News, March 1999 https://www.SignWriting.org/sw215.html SignWriting and American Sign Language Bill Collins, December 2, 1997 https://www.SignWriting.org/sw203.html Hope this helps....
