Neither of the two camps in this argument is going to convince the other that either one is right or wrong.

Don't get me wrong. I have an opinion, which I have, more or less, already expressed. I don't claim to be an objective observer. I just am all too familiar with arguments like this.

One suggestion: drop it.

So, about that new control system...

I've heard that teams will have the ability to use the same syntax as we've all been familiar with, for past years, in PBASIC. I assume this is a fall-back-plan for teams who can't cope with such a fundamental change, so quickly (possibly analogous to what some teams experienced with the introduction of an autonomous mode). What do you think the chances are that they (IFI) would use a product like a PICBasic compiler, rather than develop the translational software in-house?
