Regarding CLDR, yes, I have been working there :). Hunsrik has already 
been accepted into the Survey Tool and is expected to be out in v50 with 
Basic coverage.

Regarding the language name: "Hunsrickisch" is the native 
self-designation used by speakers of the language in Brazil, without the 
umlaut. "Hunsrückisch" refers to the German dialect in Germany. In 
English, it would be "Hunsrik".

Regarding lang_ab, lang_term and lang_lib: lang_term and lang_lib will 
be set to "hrx" (ISO 639-3). lang_ab should remain empty as hrx has no 
ISO 639-1 two-letter code.
