Hello Linda,
Most of the work in Liblouis happens on a voluntary or semi-voluntary basis.
Some people work for institutions or companies who use Liblouis for their
products or services. Others just contribute because they think it is a good
idea and because they feel they are able to contribute in their area of
expertise .
So, if you are very knowledgeable in Latin American Spanish Braille, or if you
know someone who is and who might contribute, then a lot could happen in a
relatively short time. Otherwise, perhaps, not so much.
BTW: are there big differences between Latin American Spanish Braille and
Castilian Spanish Braille? I think I heard someone mention that there is now a
unified Spanish Braille, but I don’t know if it is of any consequence.
Best regards Bue

Do you expect the new release to include Latin American Spanish braille?

Hi all
The next release of liblouis will be on March 4 2019 [1].
This is in about approximately three weeks. The goals for this milestone
are listed at https://github.com/liblouis/liblouis/milestone/19. ;
<https://github.com/liblouis/liblouis/milestone/19.> As
always, we will merge whatever is ready and that will be part of this
release.
How can you help with the release? Glad you asked: Make sure all the PRs
are ready for merging, i.e. have test cases if possible. Or pick an
issue that bugs you and submit a PR for it. Fix the doc where you think
there is a problem, etc.
I'm counting on your help to get this to be a fantastic release.
Thanks
Christian
