Well said. They’re also sharing everything!

PrusaSlicer is used as a base by some others, they’ll get this.

Version 3 is coming soon, they’ve promised good things. I’m curious what shows up.

They also open sourced their color mixing model so if people think it’s better they can switch. And they’re using and adding their stuff to the open print tag database they’ve already cooperated with others on.

This seems like all upside to the community to me.

For what it's worth, CMY filament bundles have been available forever and they're well characterized for use with HueForge there are open databases with measured color and TD values. It's great that Prusa is launching their own bundle with their own measurements. I'm just trying to point out that this all exists and has existed for a long time, and there are multiple resources available for it.

Not trying to sabotage anyone, just trying to help the community with some more information.
