Re: Why is FIRST moving backward?

I do have to say that after reading all of the responses that I am a little dissapointed. I am well aware that some teams don't have the capability of video and my statement was not to require the use of video in the submission. What I was stating is that we should not be held back from using it. The only thing that I could think of that would keep FIRST from letting us use video is that they couldn't handle the file size or the frame size of the videos that many teams put together. There are easy ways around such a problem (like if a team opts to do video they could mandate that it be on a VHS or a DVD), but apparantly FIRST doesn't want to deal with it at all. I just find it strange that they could find a very easy solution but they decide not to.
