Maybe that's the point.
You need to be DONE in 6 weeks; then back to your kids and job.
It seems like FIRST is making a statement saying "Dragging this out into a 12 week process, is not what we intend to happen. 6 weeks, means 6 weeks."
Like Joe, I don't want to put words in FIRST's mouth, but this seems to me to be a pretty clear attempt to force engineers in FIRST to NOT work on FIRST. "Ok, robots have shipped, go do real work and wait for regionals."
I'm not saying I agree (in fact, I don't), but this could be a direction the powers-that-be want us to take.
