We were working to get 9.0.7 out in time for the holidays, but we just missed! 9.0.7RC2 is very likely going to be 9.0.7 so please give it a spin and let us know if you see any issues.

Dr. Peter Dalmaris gave an amazing talk on learning, KiCad and how we move into the future at KiCon Asia 2025. Watch out for the drop bears though.

No, vam dibuixar la imatge sencera com si miressis dins d’una capsa perquè volíem que tingués un aire de mash-up entre l’art déco dels 60 i el neoplasticisme. Però al final les dimensions no ens quadraven per a xarxes, així que la vam retallar a una perspectiva 2,5x2.

Why, yes! It was created using a digital illustration tool called "Inkscape". I highly recommend it.
December 10, 2025 at 10:03 PM
That's because I was pasting in the stock logo and mashing it for the perspective. Didn't come out quite right but this was a quick job.

This December is a great time to try out the @aisler.net plugin for KiCad and get an extra discount! They are a long time friend of KiCad and using their plugin is a easy way to support the KiCad EDA community.

They are in the manufacturing boards business. They would like more people ordering boards from them. Having a centralized repository makes ordering them easier. Your license is not overridden by the host
