Do you have a KiCad project that you are particularly proud of? Want to share it with the wider community? KiCad is currently accepting submissions to include in our 'demos' that are distributed with KiCad. Send your archived KiCad v7 or later project to demos@kicad.org

An interesting conversation arose from this talk. If you or someone you know is trying @kicad_pcb for the first time, record yourself/your screen as you try things and get confused. This is invaluable to the KiCad team as they see how to usability could be improved #kicon2023

Last talk of Day 1, @Qbort will tell us all about Migrating to KiCad and How to use designs and libraries from your existing EDA tool in 79 slides 😉 #kicon2023
I'll be giving a talk at KiCon 2023 about migrating to KiCad from other tools. See you there!
Talks schedule for KiCon 2023 is up. Some last minute tickets still available at kicon.kicad.org
We look forward to seeing everyone in A Coruña next month!

. @kicad_pcb 7 supports clickable links in the schematic, perfect for pointing your coworkers to that important appnote they shouldnt miss out on.
Thanks for the T-shirt and Sticker @KiProEDA !
It is greatly appreciated :)

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but the open hardware cad/cam devroom @fosdem was denied for the first since we started in 2015. I was looking forward to seeing our community in person again and hearing about your awesome progress.

The new @kicad_pcb v6.0 is great, and they didn't even tell you about the experimental "build_board" easter egg!
Qbort (now on chaos.social) retweeted
So KiCad version 6.0.0 should now be readily available for most of you out there now. Release notes:
kicad.org/blog/2021/12/KiCad… 🎄🥳
Kicad is the first (so far only) open source project I've contributed to. It's really exciting to be part of such a big release!

Replying to @kicad_pcb @linuxfoundation
Quick update: We've been able to connect with the appropriate people. Thanks everyone for the help! Hopefully, we'll be able to get rid of the bogus website soon
If you find any links on the internet to the old domain kicad- pcb .org (not linked on purpose) make sure to ask the website owner to update it to the correct domain kicad.org
The more people that help with this the lower the impact to the project.
