Don't think it was optional. Looks like they're taking feedback, even if it isn't acknowledged. That's a good thing!
Edit: This seems to have been updated as well: "At least 50% of the team is female" vs "Demonstrates 50:50 male-to-female-ratio". This defines the requirements better, but also opens the door to all-girls teams. Steps in the right direction!
Edit 2:

Teams must identify a current female driver outlining her experience in the role. This driver will perform that role at the event(s) where the team is registered for the 2015 FRC season.

This wording confuses me a bit. So someone who's already been a driver, and then she still has to be a driver next season?
