Komar said PCB's were being shipped to TJ at the end of March

Okay guys, so a status update:
The PCBs have been produced and the US/Canada part is being shipped to tjcaustin. imsto's package is on its way too, directly from China.
The plates have been ordered, and they should take another week to finish production, according to ApocalypseMaow.

You're right. That's what he said. I haven't heard any status update since then. But maybe I'm out of the loop on that one.

Based on that, it should be all produced and the prepping to ship stage then.

Is this layout possible on the PCB? I've marked anything non-ANSI-standard on the legends.

Yes that should be possible if the stabilizers of the spacebar are in the correct positions.

Yeah it's a pretty crazy layout which is why I don't really want it (picked up one of the leftover orders) :D

Either in the classifieds after everyone gets theirs, or hopefully from mechanicalkeyboards.com if they stock them.

Can I ask how it'll work from there?  Will the EU plates then be sent to the EU proxy and then on to us with the PCBs?

I'm in a similar situation - I just ordered two PCBs and one plate knowing that I would source everything else myself (and have) and was hoping now that the plates and PCBs are produced that I could get my stuff sooner rather than later...

Here's an "I have no idea what I'm doing post" for those more technically inclined out there.  While waiting on my GH60, I decided that I really want an Alps compatible one.  So I was messing around trying to figure out KiCad, but got lost. 

I made what should be an MX/Alps module for the PCB (files at this link titled MX1AAlps in the MX1A library), but have no idea how to populate it to the PCB layout or even if it would work.  Anyone care to help a little?
