Subject: [CR]Just eie Mavic manugacture themselves?

I have recently come to shared Chuck's admiration of things Mavic. I am wondering now, though, if the derailleurs were made by Simplex, and the brakes by Modolo, just what did Mavic actually make other than rims (I assume they make their own...anybody know for sure?). Are they a design firm contracting out their designs or a manufacturing firm? Something in between?
