It looks like the series continues in issue 73.
It would be nice if this series had a Creative Commons license so the entire set could be collected into a single PDF and linked to from the KiCad docs. Also, the CC license would allow editing so the tutorial could be updated for 8.0.
I had a short peek at the colophon of issue 70, and it states:

I also had a short peek around the text of the article and did not see a (clear) exception for it.

Excellent news! Thanks for digging that out.
For the bigger picture, I think it is both simpler and more useful to just short circuit that magazine and the KiCad website together.
I do think they deserve a listing on:
and the simplest way to do that is to use the contact form on:
But that contact form requires an E-mail address, and I have no intention of filling in my personal e-mail address in such a form, so I will leave that to someone else.
I created a Github repo for the HackSpace KiCad tutorials. A single document containing the collection of tutorials can be read here. Unfortunately, given the formatting for a magazine layout, it doesn’t appear that there’s an easy way to convert the tutorials into a form like Markdown that’s easy to edit.

I agree - I hate having to provide a verifiable email just to register but … that’s what disposable email addresses are for. Just search for 5 or 10 minute email addresses which provides a unique one time email that lasts only a few minutes. Just sufficient time to register and confirm the email and access the content without having to reveal your real email.
