The process should be documented in any case. Fortunately, we have the
recent example of the Korean language addition to follow. Thank you for
your work on that.
There has also been recent interest in Czech, which would be a
reasonable example of adding a non-CJK language. I'm not sure how the
character set is decided, whether anything new will be UTF-8, or if
there are national or regional defaults.
Thanks!
