Honestly, I realize that this stuff is free, and I'm thankful for the generous donation, but "better late than never" doesn't ring quite true when "late" ends up being "two weeks after stop build day."

We're fortunate in that we ended up not needing them, but I think it very likely that delays like this could really wreck a season for a low-resource team. Any ideas for things FIRST could do to ensure they don't include PDVs for things that can't realistically be shipped in time for teams to use them?
