Adding Pema Geyleg and Tenzin Dendup, our fellow Dzongkha translation
coordinators, who certainly have skills about Tibetan-family scripts
(Dzongkha is one of these) and could maybe point you to people with

Pema, Tenzin, if you answer, please at least keep
496266 at bugs.debian.org in the destinations.
