So now is a good time to look at which features are new in KiCAD 6.0 - actually 6.0.1 is the current release at time of writing due to some bugfixes - and which features originally planned for 6.0 are now being postponed to the 7.0 roadmap and beyond. But, it was finally tagged and pushed out to distribution on Christmas day, with some much deserved fanfare in the usual places. The release date had been pushed out a bit, as this is such a huge update, and has taken a little longer than anticipated. I’ve been following the development of KiCAD for a number of years now, and using it as my main electronics CAD package daily for a the last six years or thereabouts, so the release of KiCAD 6.0 is quite exciting to an electronics nerd like me.
