Re: Innovation First Inc Contact not yet renewed for 2007 ?
Well, my questio is, where would FIRST go? The entire field control/protocol is built around the IFI systems, and the IFI systems are built around it. To switch to anything else would be an immense undertaking, and FIRST would be hurting as far as catching up went for a year or so. (The auto. counters this year are a good example. Give 'em a year, but the new system is still a little buggy. All new systems need to first be developed, then fixed. To redo the field system would be a pain.)
