Steve Slevinski is the developer of SignPuddle software and the encoder of the Sutton SignWriting standards of 2010, 2012, and 2017. Steve is the server administrator for the SignPuddle, SignWriting, SignBank, and other related sites.
Steve has created free fonts, documented standards, open source projects, and two script encodings for SignWriting. His work has been used to document 60 different sign languages with dictionaries and extended texts. His software and encoding made it possible to create four sign language Wikipedias available on the Wikimedia Incubator.
Steve has collaborated with Valerie Sutton since 2004. From 2004 till 2018, Steve was employed full-time through the Center for Sutton Movement Writing. Starting in 2019, Steve switched to part-time due to the loss of a long-time donor to the non-profit.
Steve is available for a wide variety of projects related to SignWriting. For tax-exempt projects, he is available through the Center for Sutton Movement Writing. For other projects, Steve uses Patreon to support and continue his work. He currently has the financial support of one team member, three partners, and one representative.
