Re: Programming Help.

If necessary, start installing the tools immediately and let the CSA or other officials at the event know what you need help with. It should only take an hour to write the code the second time and perhaps an hour to test and tweak it.

I once helped a team from Puerto Rico rewrite their code in 30 minutes -- I don't speak much Spanish. His English was pretty good, but he wasn't the programmer and had never used LV before. I sat in the back seat and he drove. It was a fun experience for both of us.

Whatever you produce, make a backup, or two, with good names. Then give the backups to different dependable people. Consider how you could prevent getting in this situation the next time.
