That is so sweet of you, to respond to Stefan's request. Actually Stefan is not requesting a finished dictionary at all, nor will he be using it for learning Brazilian signs...confusing, isn't it?! So don't feel pressured to finish your important work in Brazil...take your time and do it right. Stefan is asking for something totally different....he only wants the .dic and .din files now...not because he wants to learn Brazilian signs, but because he wants to learn to read SignWriting in general, so from there he can create his own German Sign Language dictionary file. So he doesn't care if the files are perfect or not. It is an interesting phenomenon, that reading a dictionary from one signed language, would help a person create a dictionary in another signed language...I never thought of that before myself....but that is what is happening!
