Yes, indeed! Belorussian in Poland was mentioned
already.
Second is the language of the Lemko's in Poland. They
number ca. 50,000 and disagree about their ethnic
adherence: part of them consider themselves
Ukrainians, some believe they are Rusinians (Rusyns),
some others think Lemko's are a separate group. I
prefer to think of them as Rusinians. The majority of
them are Orthodox, by the way.
If I am not mistaking, they use the Latin script as
well.

Sorry for my late reaction,
Jan
