Nice!
You describe quite accurately how daunting this process may be for any person trying to include a new language.
Moreover, it happens that the first attempts to include a new language are made by persons like me (translators, writers...), without a deep knowledge of what's going on in the technical side of Unicode standards and have to learn it the hard way. Oddly enough, things become easier once you pass the entry point and you can use the Survey Tool :)
Best regards.

Hi Gerard, all Some time ago I was trying to get Asturian language included in CLDR [1]. Unfortunately, it took more than expected to solve a bug with our alphabet [2], and we didn't make in time for r2.0 Perhaps now is the right time to try again, but I'm not a developer and it's **really** hard for me to create the requested data. I guess I can get the collation chart from [3], but... anything else? Do you know a step by step guide for absolute beginners on how to provide the required data? I find Survey Tool (and most of the tools in CLDR) more complicated than it could be for non-technical people. Thanks in advance for any clue you can give me. Best regards.
