From Critique to Construction: Priorities for Signed-Language Writing Infrastructure

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: This working paper turns the critical review series toward constructive priorities for signed-language writing infrastructure. It treats SignWriting and Formal SignWriting as the strongest currently documented path to durable signed-language text infrastructure while treating that position as the beginning of a serious program rather than its conclusion. The paper identifies what should be built, studied, stabilized, and compared next: evidence, tools, corpora, interoperability, standards, data governance, and stewardship. Its purpose is to move signed-language writing discussion beyond recurring threshold disputes and toward the practical requirements of durable text infrastructure.
