So, the physical keyboard layout is pretty much final for a while now, and we have had many long discussion threads about the functional keyboard layout, or at least the labels that will be put on the keymat. Several layout proposals have resulted from this.

How do you intend to proceed now?

- The layout is already decided but you just haven't showed it yet?

- You are going to make your own layout (probably inspired by the community proposals)?

- Will there be a community vote about some of the controversial design decisions (e.g. left-aligned vs centered)?

- Will there be a community vote to choose one of the proposals?

I assume the keymat labels are one of the things that can be modified pretty much until the last minute, so I can understand if it's not yet really a priority at this time. Still, it would be nice to know how and when this will be decided.
 
I'll check all the keymat threads when the time comes, look for favourites, point out flaws I see with them (if there are any) and continue discussing about improvements from there on here at the boards.
