The dawn of the districts is upon us. There are many areas that are in the process of implementing the system, a system which has seen so much success in the past, despite a significant amount of resistance early on. So now, FIRST wants to slowly bring everyone into the model.
I encourage everyone to check out slides 4-8 of
this slide show to learn more about what such a large scale implementation of districts is planned to look like.
So I am interested to find out about a few more things:
Is your area trying to go to districts? How close are you to seeing it actually happen? Is there anything that your area wants to do to break the mold set by FiM and MAR?
Do you want districts in your area?/Are you happy that your area has districts? What are your main reasons for this opinion?
Given the above slide show, which I am sure you all looked at, how do you think FIRST will deal with international teams?
Side note: I understand that some of these question have been discussed before in various threads around Chief Delphi, but I have not found a place which really looks at the district model and just tears it apart for its benefits and flaws.
