Hey Brian, I'm looking at the download page at kicad-pcb.org and I don't see a link to this page. Am I missing something? We should be pointing users here rather than asking them to build from source in order to run bleeding edge versions of KiCad. Would someone please add a link to this site in the "KiCad Bleeding Edge Version" section of the download page when you get a chance?
