Top-level archival record for the Sutton SignWriting complete eight-series release
This repository contains the public platform record for the Sutton SignWriting Platform: Complete Eight-Series Release. It is the umbrella publication record that links eight coordinated series on signed-language writing, evidence, writing-system theory, Formal SignWriting, literacy research, critical review, infrastructure, and Unicode-facing work.
The platform record is the release-level entry point. It explains how the eight series fit together, how the platform DOI should be used, and where readers should go for series-level and artifact-level claims.
