The real test might be if someone tries to express all of the features
and assumptions of sign language into Lojban.  This was something that
came up once (I'm assuming it wasn't you - the person, whose name I
can't remember, but s/he was especially interested written
transcriptions of sign language, I think based on choreography notation
- seemed to think Lojban could meet the challenge, if in no other way by
coming up with verbal representations of written sign language).  You
may be in a better position to evaluate, having examined sign language
linguistically.


If anyone knows about this, please post it.  I'm very interested in both writing sign languages and signing spoken languages.
