Kirrily is working on generalized product schema that peripheral could include -- there will be a "product maker" type. It was on sandbox a week or two ago, but it's been blown away. Kirrily: when will the new product schema be available?

Excellent. Done :-)

One thing I was going to bring up was the expected type of the
"compatible computers" property. Currently, this is set to the same
"computer manufacturer/brand" as is used for whole computers -- does
this seem right to people, or should we have a separate type for
"peripheral manufacturer"?

Cheers,
