DJing a FIRST event
I'm interested in DJing a first competition (not particularly picky as to where, preferably within a day's drive of Washington, DC). How would I go about volunteering to do that?

Re: a fun robotics play
Continuing with Mr. Tyler's idea:
Start with one event description ("Rocky wants to win a fight to prove he's a real man"). Then break it down into three smaller events. Then break those down....

Re: How do you manage code changes?
I use subversion with Tortise (http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/) . Elite Frontier (https://elitefrontier.org/mt/) will provide SVN hosting to FIRST teams for free (they already host 116 and 1418).
