For those of you who did not have the good fortune of being able to attend
https://kicad-kicon.com/[KiCon], you missed a great conference. If this
years conference was any indication, you will not want to miss the next one.
The conference completely sold out with 220 registrations. Attendees from
all over the world gathered to share their experiences with KiCad. There
were high quality talks, the badges were cool, everything ran smoothly,
https://mhubchicago.com/[mHUB] was the ideal venue, and the after hours
events were a whole lot of (maybe too much) fun. There was a tremendous
amount of excitement about all things KiCad which bodes well for the future.

If you couldn't attend, the https://youtu.be/nL0yTvJKA5c[keynote talk] and
https://youtu.be/NRwTyBX2BFk[developer panel talk] have been uploaded to
YouTube. All of the talk videos are in the process of being uploaded so
you will be able to view all of them. You should also take a look at
https://hackaday.com/2019/04/30/kicad-community-shines-at-first-ever-kicon/[Mike Szczys' Hack-A-Day Post]
for a nice write up on KiCon.

The KiCad project would like to thank Chris Gammel for all of the hard work
he did to make KiCon happen. We would also like to thank all of our
https://kicad-kicon.com/sponsors/[sponsors], presenters, and volunteers who
made KiCon possible.

The first KiCon was so good that you may want to get your tickets early for
the next KiCon before it sells out. We hope to see all of you at the next
KiCon.

The KiCad project is proud to announce the release of version 5.1.0.
This is the first ever minor version release of KiCad and was developed
primarily to resolve compatibility issues with Linux GTK3 and long
awaited support for python3.

In addition to the primary focus, there have been many important changes
that make this release a substantial improvement over the 5.0 series and
a worthwhile upgrade for users on all platforms. Included in the
improvements are:

- Improved 3D model library path configuration.
- Cairo canvas is now used for printing support on all platforms.
- Schematic and symbol library editors now use the modern canvases for
rendering.
- Symbol pin table is now editable.
- Pcbnew scripting support for Python 3 has been added.
- Snapping for graphical object drawing in board and footprint editors.
- Significant user interface improvements.
- Major dialog box improvements.
- Both the footprint and symbol library editors now share the same
user interface paradigm with a library tree view pane.
- Symbol, footprint, and 3D model library improvements.
- Documentation and translation improvements.
- Less pain for Linux package maintainers, now all features should be
easy to support.
Additionally, files created by KiCad version 5.1 remain 100%
compatible with files created by version 5.0.

Of course no new stable version of KiCad would be complete without
https://launchpad.net/kicad/5.0/5.1.0-rc2[many],
https://launchpad.net/kicad/5.0/5.1.0[many] bug fixes so please
consider upgrading as soon as possible. This version will be
the only supported version of KiCad moving forward. There will
be no further releases of the 5.0 series.

Version 5.1.0 is built from the source code in the
link:https://git.launchpad.net/kicad/log/?h=5.1[lp:kicad/5.1]
branch.

KiCad binaries will be available for download for Windows, MacOS, and
Linux are available or will be in the very near future. See the
http://www.kicad-pcb.org/download/[KiCad download page] for guidance.

Thank you to all developers, packagers, librarians, document writers,
translators, and everyone else who helped make this release possible.
We hope you enjoy the latest release of KiCad.

The KiCad project is proud to announce the latest series 5 stable
release of KiCad. The 5.1.2 stable version contains critical bug
fixes and other minor improvements since the 5.1.0 release. It
also includes improved footprint, symbol, and 3D model libraries,
translations, and documentation. A list of all of the fixed bugs
since the 5.1.0 release can be found on the
https://launchpad.net/kicad/+milestone/5.1.2[KiCad 5.1.2 milestone page].
This release contains several critical bug fixes so please consider
upgrading as soon as possible.

If you are wondering why there was no "official" 5.1.1 release,
there was a serious issue after 5.1.1 was tagged and some users
had downloaded the unreleased 5.1.1 builds from the KiCad build
server. The only way to prevent install conflicts was to create
a new 5.1.2 tag with the bug fix and spin new builds. The KiCad
project would like to apologize for any inconvenience this may
have caused.

Version 5.1.2 is made from the
https://code.launchpad.net/~kicad-product-committers/kicad/+git/product-git/+ref/5.1[lp:kicad/5.1]
branch with some cherry picked changes from the development branch.

Packages for Windows, MacOS, and Linux are available or will be
in the very near future. See the
link:/download[KiCad download page] for guidance.

Thank you to all developers, packagers, librarians, document writers,
translators, and everyone else who helped make this release possible.
