Hoi,
It takes a font that is available from the MediaWiki software. I know that
ASL does not fulfill our formal requirements but the flipside is that there
are many technical issues that do not come to light in the Incubator.
The purpose of having a Wikipedia in ASL is that we will learn how to do a
top down oriented language. It is a first. What it also does is give a ton
of positive attention to both Wikipedia and the use of Sign Writing. So as
I have indicated, the formal requirements are in this a hindrance. With ASL
live, we will gain the technical issues clear. We will find that more
people will start writing ASL and focus it on Wikipedia.
All reasons why we should.
Thanks,
GerardM
