Slight side note to the question asked by the OP, but I think the way they tried to have the programs work together this year is via the game itself. The ramps are straight out of the 2011 FTC game - "Get over it". FTC students on our team, many of them first or second year members, when they saw that requirement said "Hey, we did that in 'Get over it' and can easily do that again." I would imagine we will see elements of previous FTC games incorporated into future FRC games. I wouldn't be surprised if in 2013 we have to do some kind of lift, like in this year's FTC game.
