Prusa colaboration with MPCNC?

After watching some livestreams from Thomas Sanladerer of MPCNC, i thought it would be cool if Prusa is willing to make colaboration with MPCNC.

To make it more user friendly (although it is already), to maintain its (Prusa) concept of constant updating both hardware and software things. Plus, Prusa community would help developing it even further. 

What do you think?

They do have a maker space, so I could see them having one.

Cloning the design; not really Jo’s style, I think.

Plus they’re pretty busy supporting their own product line.

I am not sure it is in their best interest to support another 3D printer maker.

For them, it is not so evident to work together on things like this. The company is growing like crazy and it is very important to keep focussing on their own products in my opinion. It would only be a distraction and the community for the MPCNC is already pretty much established.

Collaboration to expand into a new market is smart business.  Collaboration in a well established market? Not so smart.

That wasn’t collaboration; that was acquisition.
