I have Türkçe, Українська, Việt, and 1 usable (out of 3 due to the need of the others for a proprietary glyph composition engine) Chinese keyboards still to do, and some general bug fixes on several extended keys I spotted while testing. Expect an updated set of similar patches before build lockdown. There is also still the hanging question with regard for the need for additional keyboards for existing or potential deployments. Armenia has been raised as one possible extra, but not yet confirmed. Perhaps once XO-4's start to land and folks play with the OSK we'll see some formal requests.

Yes the language layouts are a distinct set of XML files in one directory. They can be edited live on running system, so it's not like they really need to be part of maliit-plugins build compilation.
