As I said in another thread:

Please be careful about turning this thread into "should robot be built by 100% student", then to "there shouldn't be engineers on FIRST team building the robot", and finally "the point of FIRST is supposed to be... "

We have been through that thousands of times +1 before, among different topics. Most of them ended up becoming accusation and bashing. There is no need for that. Tell people how successful your team is, demonstrate how it is effective for YOUR school, and learn to listen other's point of view. And understand that no one way will work for every team. OK? ;-)

I ask that everyone rain negative rep points to anyone who is going to be completely negative and disrespectful in this discussion.
