After three years, we should be discussing the few robot bypasses and communication losses per year, not the hundreds per year we are now discussing,

I have also been sad to hear the many troubled stories this weekend of robots losing communication to the field. FIRST as a community needs to look carefully at how to simplify the control system.

FIRST had a request for proposal process for speed controllers and the control system in 2008, I wonder if it is possible to restart that proposal process to allow the community a chance to build a better control system.

I look forward to the day when robot communication failures will be a rare occurrence at a regional.
