Re: 2012 FRC Team 1717 Uncut

I don't know about you guys, but I'm way more interested in their targeting software! I love the Swerve drive and all, but many-a-team have developed a Swerve drive through their histories that had people swooning. I haven't seen a single team with such pin-point accuracy as employed by 1717.

Seeing 1717's code would be quite the early Christmas present But Adam is right. It's unfair to ask a team to release their stuff. If 1717 feels right about releasing the stuff they put so much work in, then they'll do it. If not, we can only continue on the path of exploration and striving to reach that elusive point at the top of the mountain where 1717's robot parties with all the other legendary machines of yore.

Once again, 1717, congratulations on an amazing machine. My views of 1717 have certainly changed through this season (not that I held any negative feelings towards them or anything like that). If 1717 can continue to build robot's of this quality, it'll only be a matter of time before we hear Dave introducing them on Einstein. And from there, the confetti storm for them won't be too far off.
