Hi, This is just to mention that we are working to add support for Khmer language (a CTL language) to ICU. We have already sent locale and collation data to the common repository. We now start work on the Layout engine. Would this be the correct list to talk about this? Our plan is (following Eric's recommendation a year ago, when we started) to start working on a separate module, unless something has changed since then that would make more interesting now to include it in the indic module. We are in contact with several other projects in the region (also CTL languages) that are now localizing OpenOffice and will soon need to have their scripts included in ICU. Based on this, starting a non-indian indic script module could be another option (making it a generic new module with only one language, instead of a language specific module).
