Are there schematics / gerber files / project files available for the Pi-KVM v3 HAT? I would be excited to support an open-hardware project.

It's open source, but not open hardware. All the code is completely free, so closed hardware is our way of monetization to continue development.

Would be awesome after you make some money back if you could open hardware it for those of us who require full trust!

What open-hardware Raspberry Pi alternative would you be using with this then?

After all, hardly any point of having a open-hardware HAT if you connect it to a closed-hardware Raspberry Pi. Even if the full schematics etc were available, the processor on the Pi is anything but open.
