Q&A:
* Why the blank winkeys?
This is to match my two other favourite sets; the 2015 runs of RA and Olivetti
* R5?
The goal with this run is to stay close to the original run while improving compatibility. I'm personally not a fan of R5 in base and I expect it would struggle as a child kit, I don't want to offer a kit I expect to fail.
* UK ISO?
While I understand UK ISO was supported in the base kit of R1 the goal of R2 is to get this set made. The market has changed a lot and this set is running in a much different format to R1, for starters there is a focus on support worldwide due to increased vendors. Therefore it makes most sense to target physical compatibility in most cases, specific language legend support is an extra cost the likely >95% of users won't benefit from. That said I will explore an international kit, I've had a lot of requests for this so I'm happy to investigate.
Due to the change to Keykobo UK ISO has become economically viable.To Do:

* Add 1u supers - Blanks will remain alongside
* Change Print to Prt Sc
* Add front print to Prt Sc and Pause
* Merge kitsUpdates:

* Added 2x 1u Supers
* Merged base kits into one
