Re: TI and future Jaguars
Generally speaking:
I should think that most production manufacturing for a project like this is going to be done by community resources. I don't think many teams that might contribute to the project are going to want to turn production quantites of units. I think it's important to insure such a project's commitment to FIRST that whatever we make that is approved by FIRST is made from the greater pool of resources.
Otherwise I worry that we'd limit contribution because someone that might offer up a design would worry they'd have to carry the burden themselves. We might also make FIRST uncomfortable that there isn't really a commitment to deliver if the demand of quantity is there.
From a business educational perspective probably the most education for the students comes up to the certain point of commitment and then beyond that it's repetition and distracting. So it'll be important that the community have the resources to handle those logistics. Probably need to compile lists of friendly assembly houses. Lists of friendly suppliers. Lists of people willing to donate production resources like myself.
