( 1 ) Reverse colored accent keys. I know previous sets ran with them, but i dont like the look personally. Will look into it if there's demand, but also need to figure out which child kit to put them into (base already pretty cramped)
( 2 ) Macro expansion keys. I would love row correct macro column with F1-F10, but it will likely depend on demand.
( 3 ) Second 2.2u shift key & 2u shift. Should be ok to add to base kit. No promises though.
( 4 ) Second B. Important addition to base kit.
( 5 ) Redundant ANSI enter. Will be removed.
( 6 ) Considering R5 in base. I dont think it'll make it as a separate child kit.
( 7 ) 10u? Will ask KKB if they have molds. Likely will be an add-on.
( 8 ) Windowed Scroll Lock. Wasn't in original Skidata keyboard. But i understand it might be weird if we have other windowed keys. Will include if not too expensive.
( 9 ) 1u Spacebar. Should be ok to add to base kit. No promises though.
( 10 ) R1 backspace in Alert kit. Should be ok to add.
( 11 ) 1u Alt Gr in base kit will be changed to 1u Alt. It's too cramped for me as well.
( 12 ) R2 |\ will be removed in favor of R1 |\ in alert kit.
( 13 ) Orange relegendables? Think it's a hard sell, might be a pass on this one. :(
( 14 ) Thinking of ways to make Nordeuk work. Am considering buying out MOQ.
Three previous three sets I know of are Skiidata with two i's. Why are you using only one?

I would assume the II comes from GMK SkIIdata being the second run of this colorway that was manufactured by GMK. Drop probably took that name not knowing any better (or they were looking to avoid potential trademark issues). The Austrian company that the original Cherry orange-on-black keyboard/keyset was made for is called Skidata (https://www.skidata.com), with one I.

Yup. Skiidata with two ‘I’s I believe was the name TKC gave this set when they ran it as a R2 of this N9/V2 colorway. The DCX project was an extension of this GMK project afaik, so the name stuck.
Skidata with one ‘I’ is the original, I think.
