British Sign Language in "lo do ckiku ma zvati."

Paul, a Lojban enthusiast residing in the UK, yesterday asked me about American Sign Language [merko xanbau] in "lo do ckiku ma zvati." He pointed out that a player in the UK would rightly wish to learn British Sign Language [brito xanbau] rather than ASL.

I've modified the page on xanbau to reflect a broader understanding of sign language, and to reflect the point that Paul made. Any sign language can be used to play "lo do ckiku ma zvati," even one made up on the spot. (Technique: contract leverages this mechanism to invent a sign on the spot when the generally recognized sign is not known by the players).

If you're a "Where are your Keys?" player, by all means use your local sign language!
