Programming After 21st
From section 6, Robot Transportation (6.3.5):
"FIRST will allow you to keep all of your robot controls (Operator Interface, OI power supply, joysticks, etc.) and not ship them with your robot on Tuesday, 2/21/2006. This will allow you to continue to work on your programming. If you decide not to ship controls with your robot, please remember to bring your controls to your initial competition. FIRST does not have replacement controls."
Also in section 5, the Robot, Page 4
"During the FIX-IT WINDOWS, software for either the robot or operator interface may be developed without restriction."
From the latest update, Feb. 17:
"After the robot has shipped, and outside of the FIX-IT WINDOWS, software development is prohibited.", in response to:
"To what extent are teams allowed to do any software work (planning, design, coding, parameter adjustments, and/or testing) with their practice robots or dashboards outside of the Fix-It windows?"
So what's the deal. Can I, or can I not, program after shipping? I have no "practice robot\dashboards", so... ?
