Hi,
We're still working on the math so updated lfg files buit not many other things apart from a few fixes.
In the process I ran into another area where ms eems to take the lead:
https://devblogs.microsoft.com/math-in-office/unicode-math-braille-sequences...
and although it aims at msword I gave that a go for context so we now have a "braille-basic" module (style) that we (can) use (and run as demo) for playing with math spacing because we basically have a monospace font. If there is any interest in braille as alternative output we can extend that. I'm pretty sure that we need to adapt some (general spacing related) presets to this situation.

I remember having contact with people in the braille association in Belgium. To prepare braille text you need to follow certain rules, it is not just using braille symbols.
sure, there are subtle details (leading chars and so) and there's also some 'shortcut' system
So it is better to ask braille specialist about the requirements for good braille text. I'll wait and see what demands show up ... at least some basics are there.
