Libby, thank you for your insights.
I owe my own successes to FIRST. It is the reason why I got into the school I did, and it was my drive behind studying computer science.
This year I have begun pushing my own personal agenda to increase to influence of FIRST so it can have an even greater impact on others. I have open sourced all of my autonomous code and am attempting to train a new generation of programmers through the FRC platform.
Where I am a mentor of FIRST 319, I see my self now as a mentor of FIRST. Now that I have reached the end of my schooling, I am now looking to utilize FIRST once again. It will be a jumping off point for the next phase of my life, my career.
That being said, the rules regarding the FIRST logo were for team use only. I understand that you are not an official spokesperson, but I am still curious about your opinion. I want my endeavorers to reflect my dedication to FIRST, and would like to use the FIRST logo, not for my own marketing, but to market FIRST.
....curious about your opinion
btw do you have examples of misuse of the logo?
