Thanks for the contribution. A couple of notes. symbols/ph file is generally ok. The rules subdirectory is not what I'd expect. Could you please provide the small patch to base.xml.in file?

Committed, thanks. Even though it is strange to see variants consisting mostly of VoidSymbols
(In reply to comment #7) > Committed, thanks. Even though it is strange to see variants consisting mostly > of VoidSymbols Hi, thank you very much. Yes, I would agree. The Baybayin script is alphasyllabry so it is always CV-CV, then other vowels are represented by use of a diacritical mark resulting to just 18 base "glyphs" only. Initially I did not include "VoidSymbols" but I noticed that if it is left empty, the system checks the next "upper" keyboard in the list and producing the character there first. 1: Latin = Key1234 produces "A" 2: Baybayin = Key1234 is empty If pressing Key1234 in Baybayin will produce the letter "A" from the Latin layout. I opted instead to hardcode "VoidSymbols" to avoid it. From what I understand, it was intentional? Anyway, I guess that's for another thread / ticket. Thank you again!
One question. How would you estimate the number of users for colemak variants? I would be inclined to move them to "extras" section (base.extras.xml.in)
This is licensed under GPLv3, instead of MIT as the rest of the layouts. Can this please be changed?
