Richard,
when we attended the FIRST Summit in late June, we had heard of the plans to interview students the following school year.
I believe it was told to us that it would only occur at CMP.
Now it seems as though it will be at every FRC regional/district event as well.
Given the daunting task of interviewing everyone, why not just follow the same process as before, but instead have the judges select the top 3-5 (arbitrary no.) to interview, then select the 2 winners.

Just my 2 cents...
