we are looking to expand the repository to not merely represent those,
but to also serve as a resource that vendors can draw on.

Would you say, then, that Marcel's statements:

"Now that CLDR is sorting out how to improve keyboard layouts, hopefully something falls off to replace the *legacy* US-Intl."

and:

"We can only hope that now, CLDR is thoroughly re-engineering the way international or otherwise extended keyboards are mapped."

reflect the situation accurately?

Nothing in the PRI #367 blog post or background document communicated to me that CLDR was going to try to influence vendors to retire these keyboard layouts and replace them with those. I thought it was just about providing a richer CLDR format and syntax to better "support keyboard layouts from all major providers." Please point me to the part I missed.
