The occasional Southeast Asian script we hadn't seen before is brought to
our attention from outside, but in general we've identified a large set of
scripts we need to work on (see the Roadmap) and we sort of focus on that.
It is sometimes difficult to work on them because of resources available,
and for some of the scripts it is difficult to get in touch with users or
experts.

I would tend to concur with this assessment.
