Re: New Site For Programming Help

Firstly, AWESOME enthusiasm on the initiative.

All of the prior discussion mentions some really good points that you should consider. There are a lot of great resources out there such as the WPI think Tank, NI website, CD whitepapers etc.

Maybe you could take all of this (relatively unorganized) information, and formulate a "lesson plan" sort of tutorial set. Ranging from absolute "I have never programmed before" to the very advanced.

Do not copy others work, but simply create a coherent list for someone to follow, with links to the existing resources. Through organizing all of this, you will be able to find holes in what is out there, as compared to what people are interested in. With this you can challenge yourself and other members of the FRC community to give back by helping fill in those holes.

But most importantly, do not lose track of your dreams and goals of the project -- Forge On!
