Let's assemble a concise list of what isn't working-stuff you can't find, etc. Can we put this in a numbered document? Then the entire list can be forwarded up to the people that need to see it. Or if you don't want to work as a group, can use the "website feedback" form under "quick links."

For example:
1. "If you go to What's Going On In My Area? (the new team map) and look at FRC teams from X area, clicking on their team name now brings you to their personal website ... it doesn't give you the competitions they've attended, awards they've won, etc. I really liked being able to see that! I hope it comes back soon."
2. "I'm looking for the Form W9 and where to send it, but I can't seem to find it (and site search returns 0 results). "
3. "I wish the contrast on some of the text was higher and that the site wasn't so completely reliant on Javascript. I don't see a site map at the bottom and I am worried how my Wii will handle browsing it."
4. "the Javascript navbars prevent me from ctrl-clicking links to open them in a new tab. It just uses Javascript to change the current page. I really dislike when sites do that. It makes them a lot harder for me to pull down massive amounts of information from at once, and really is completely not necessary."
