Since nobody really looks at the tech board much any more, I'll post my request here.

Could everyone convince their teams to send me copies of their code? Team 422 (Mech Tech) is building a massive "Codex" that will eventually be available to all teams. This is going to turn into a code bible, people. Send me last year's code, this year's code, whatever you want, just label it like the following:

"Robot Name - Team Number - Year"

So, our robot would be either Peacemaker-422-2001, or Peacemaker4222001. Send your code to me at Raven3L@aol.com, preferably as an attachment.

Thanks everybody!

-Gui

You FIRST ;-)

Have you gotten any takers yet? Sure, I would like to see other teams' code! I'm a little more hesitant to share ours though :-)

Actually, I've gotten code from one team, with promises from about 6 others (they have to find the code first and get it off the 286es, 386es, and 486es). I'll gladly share our code with anyone who asks, since I wrote it. After all, what's the point of FIRST if you don't learn from it?

OPEN SOURCE ALL THE WAY....

don't say that to microsoft... They're trying to get the government to make open source ILLEGAL!
