Thanks for this.
I don't know anything about Bulgarian, or input methods, but it seems to
me that this can't do any harm. Based on the comments I installed it as
"bulgarian-alt-phonetic" and shortened the description, I hope this was
ok; and that someone will fix it if not...

It's good that you started the copyright assignment process.
I'm assuming however that most of the content here is a factual
description of the layout and that it was therefore ok to install this
as a "tiny change" without an assignment, at least for now.

Hello, everyone!

Here, in Bulgaria, a lot of people use the new bulgarian phonetic keyboard
layout. It was issued as a national standard (BDS) in 2006 but, oddly, it's
not yet supported by Emacs.
I'm using it too and it's always hard and uncomfy to use Emacs for writing
in Bulgarian, since one have to switch the layout to English for navigating
in the text and to Bulgarian to actually type letters.
That's why I made a patch to add the new phonetic layout as an input
method. Here the layout is commonly called 'New Bulgarian Phonetic' and
hence the name 'bulgarian-new-phonetic'.

I was advised to send the patch here on this email list. Also I already
applied for the FSF form for past and future changes.

I would be more than happy if you apply the patch. :)

Regards!
Yordan
