Thanks for your attention, I was losing hope!

Actually it has orthography. This file contains the results of orthography
sessions held by our linguists and pioneer of our language, that led to
standardization of this language, and is now widely accepted and in use:
http://azeri.org/Azeri/az_arabic/azturk_standard.pdf

This language also has its own ISO 639-3 code as an independent and official
language: "azb". This is some information about this code and language in some
well known linguistic websites:
http://www.ethnologue.com/show_language.asp?code=azb
http://www.llmap.org/languages/azb.html
http://globalrecordings.net/en/langcode/azb

It is not a community invented language, there are numerous publications,
broadcasting, historical resources and internet resources available on it.

However since it can almost be written with Persian keyboard and also due to
lack of our efforts, it has not been standardized in computer world and does
not have its own standard keyboard layout, or computer locale. As a first step
we need it to be accepted in glibc and then continue working on it.
