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.
