10 work has been merged. I’ve got a bit more docs work to do on the new optional bottom facing single color LEDs, I would skip those for now.

Here’s a render of the keymap, you can see the file over at https://github.com/petejohanson/revxlp-config/blob/main/config/boards/shields/revxlp/revxlp.keymap

I’ll post my personal keymap a bit later. It’s mostly Callum style mod approach.

It’s in a branch of the repo until I can address one or two minor issues, and some docs additions needed.

Not sure why we don’t see them used more. For designs that are minimizing soldering work, they’re “one more thing to learn to solder”, and there’s lots of folks mimicking designs they see using the standard “standoffs with screws on each end” that it perpetuates.

For the upcoming LDSA keycaps that have lower skirts, you need to have a “clean” plate or you get the skirt striking the screw head. I imagine that might motivate more folks to explore this approach.
