Hoi,
The interface of MediaWiki is right to left or left to right. With ASL it
has to be top down. This is something that has never been considered. I
have asked for ASL to become a full project so that the issues can be
properly seen, diagnosed and remedied. It will be supported by the
SignWriting Foundation. There is no chance that it will be abandoned and it
is imho enough reason to allow for it to be created at this time.
Thanks,
GerardM
