I just want to throw an idea out for a second.... Just let me know where this falls on the spectrum of Great Idea <--> Bat #$% Crazy....

Why not open source TIMS/STIMS and the FMS Web Backend/API and let the teams hack* on it?

The devs that put together and manage TBA have done a great job managing it and handing load and caching. I'm sure as a community we could do far better, and provide more resources (eyeballs, time, talent) than what is available to FIRST IT.

* Hack - as in the old/original definition

(And yes, clearly, game elements for the unreleased games would need to be managed in a closed repo....)
