Hi, it seems at ethnologue it's grouped in the collection Deaf Sign Language (<A href="http://www.ethnologue.com/show_family.asp?subid=23-16">http://www.ethnologue.com/show_family.asp?subid=23-16</A>)<BR>
So it can optionally be used with the code sgn as Richard Ishida's utility indicates the registry says:<BR>
"Yiddish Sign Language <BR>
<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 80%" class=comments> For use with the <SPAN class=stname>sgn</SPAN> primary language subtag, ie. as the sequence <SPAN class=stname>sgn-yds</SPAN>. However it is usually preferable to replace that sequence with just the <SPAN class=stname>yds</SPAN> primary language subtag.</DIV>
