Hello everyone! I finally finished mocking up the set in the ePBT template (hopefully) and added an image of it to the first post. I spent a lot of time fixing issues with alignment and legend placement, probably too much time, but I finally got to a place where I was happy with the way things looked. I created new Hiragana and Cyrillic legends for this set, fixing some issues that I had with the existing legends and taking into consideration feedback provided by Konstantin and others. I've said it many times before, but this time I actually mean it: further changes are locked. Of course, if there is some major oversight, I will gladly fix things accordingly.
Furthermore, a few EU folks have expressed concerns surrounding additional fees/charges with ProtoTypist being the EU proxy. I spoke with Jae not long ago on this, and things still seem up in the air as to how finalizing the separation from the EU will impact this as negotiations are still in progress. I'm obviously hoping that things work out well, but I will continue to keep an eye on things.
That's it for updates. I sent the completed template to KBDfans and I am awaiting next steps. I am hoping to get samples made soon so I can check out the new legends in person and check them against the original Xerox keycap colors.
