The issue is currently discussed at dante-ev mailing list.  Markus Kohm
has contributed Babel support for the experimental hyphenation patterns
as language german-x.  Some more work is needed to add support for both,
traditional and new German orthography, and for Swiss hyphenation patterns.

Question:  Would Babel support be ok or is there any reason to prefer a
new package for experimental German hyphenation patterns?

Karl, we have noticed the time-frame you've set (one to two weeks) and
report back here ASAP.

Best regards,
