Have you ever wanted to design your own PCB from scratch? Are you
curious about the design process and the tools and techniques used by
pros and hackers alike? Maybe you have some experience with Eagle PCB
and want to try out a free and open source design suite...

Now's the chance to learn KiCad!

"KiCad is an EDA software suite for the creation of professional
schematics and printed circuit boards up to 32 copper layers with
additional technical layers. KiCad runs on Windows, Linux and Apple OS X
and is released under the open-source GNU GPL v2 free of charge."

The workshop will be hosted by hardware ninja Jared Boone of
Sharebrained Technology and HackRF fame.
