I tend to agree with you; however, a good resource might be:

Subject: [NFB-Talk] Where to ask questions about braille transcription?

I suppose this is a long shot but does anyone know where would be the best place to go to ask questions about braille transcription?

I am working on a project to create braille with a 3D printer. We have code to take braille characters and draw the appropriate dots. But we don't have a way to take plain text and transcribe that into braille. My collaborators are asking me all kinds of questions about the rules for transcribing plain text into braille and I simply don't know the answer most of the time.

A good example is the string ABCs, that is Capital ABC and lower case s. 
Liblouis transcribes that dot 6, dot 6, abc, dot 6, dot 3, s. But I think it should be dot 6, dot 6, abc, dots 5 and 6, s.
