Two weeks ago, unknown scammers took over http://kicad-pcb.org and are posing as the KiCad project. They are a @linuxfoundation project and they control their trademark. They can't reach anyone at the foundation. No response to e-mails or phone calls.

They are the only ones who can make the claim with Cloudflare

Looks like they were finally able to get in touch with the right Linux Foundation people.
