Re: Dangerous precedent set by Q&A 461: Loaning Parts/Assemblies to other teams

A sincere thank you to Frank Merrick and the GDC for taking the time to listen to the community's feedback on this issue. Whenever you make a rule change in a game as complicated as the ones we play in FRC, there will always be a long chain of consequences. It's impressive that the GDC took the time to consider the possibilities and reevaluated their initial answer. I am very impressed. Also, the wording in the Team Update was incredibly gracious. This is an organization that I'm very proud to be part of.
