When is the notification of the 2008 NASA grant winners?
I thought it was tomorrow, and I could have sworn I read that filling out the application, but the application page says: "NASA will review submitted applications and inform teams of their selection via the NASA Robotics Alliance Project web site (http://robotics.nasa.gov) no later than Monday, 19 November 2007."
Now, I go to that link and there is no place to sign in or check a list that I'm seeing. So yeah. Anyone know anything, or am I just missing something really obvious? |

It may have been modified when they had to extend the date for the California teams...

The real issue is that, at least here on the West Coast, the group that does the evaluations has been innundated. I heard that they recieved at least twice as many applications as they expected. So the percentage of requests that are filled will drop dramatically this year. I am sure that the poor guys and gals that have to make the decisions are sweating over this right now. There are other indicators, like a drop in the number of multi-regional teams, that indicate this is a really tough year for all teams. If your team has ever thought about hosting an off-season event, this might be a great year to start. If you are in Southern California and want to do so please contact me via e-mail. There is more help available than you might think. |

Oh, wow. I didn't realize there was such growth, but I guess I am on the other side of the country.
And the reason I posted this today and not on the 19th was that is says by the 19th, not on the 19th. So I wasn't sure if they'd already sent out notifications or if it was just a grammar thing. |

"Thanks for tuning in guys, unfortunately we still have five more hours until it is the proper time in Alaska/Hawaii so that we can start! Don't go anywhere though because who knows, maybe we'll start at Pacific time or Mountain time, it all depends on how long it takes me to get to the nearest KK and grab some breakfast!!" |

They're alive! They just posted this about 1 minute ago on http://robotics.nasa.gov/ :
FIRST Robotics Competition The NASA application for FIRST Robotics Competition sponsorship is now closed. The application directions page remains available for informational purposes. NOTICE: The list of sponsorship recipients will be posted here as soon as they are available. |
