We would build tools to make it easier to extract symbols and footprints from data sheets, and then everybody could kind of contribute those to this, like, shared library, and we'd be able to grow that over time.

We had designs on doing manufacturing after that, but certainly, like, the first product that we launched was that product, and so yeah, around that sort of time when I was, when I was chatting with Chris, that, that was very much what we were focused on.
