I'm interested if we can STANDARDIZE sign language. I can't use
AUSLAN, the Australian signing because it relies on two-handed
gestures. As a hemiplegic (with speech impediments), I need to
use ASL.
But no-one in Australia knows ASL.
Can we start the beginnings of an International ASL ? I know
that this is not a new idea. It has been tried before. But has
it been tried via FIDONET conferencing ?
