OK, I've added a new version of this package to my PPA:
https://edge.launchpad.net/~arnegoetje/+archive/ppa?field.series_filter=lucid

The new keyboard layout has been implemented as an alternative to the
existing one and is named "Laos - STEA (proposed standard layout)". It
follows the proposed standard with one exception: in the proposed
standard several keys have two combining codepoints in their SHIFT
position. Since this is not supported in XKB, those positions have been
left blank. You can achive the same result by pressing the two
respective keys with their combining character assigned.

For example:
The key 'SHIFT+A' in the proposed standard has the combination U+0EB1 followed by U+0EC9 (LAO VOWEL SIGN MAI KAN + LAO TONE MAI THO). You can get the same result by pressing 'A' (LAO VOWEL SIGN MAI KAN), followed by the key 'H' (LAO TONE MAI THO).

Please help testing the new layout, by installing the package from my
PPA (for Lucid) and leave some comment here. If you are satisfied, I
will upload the package to the archive.

If the keyboard layout(s) should be renamed, please also mention this
here.

Thanks a lot.
