Personally, I think FIRST should allow some more fix-it-window time, but not extend the deadline.

Fix it windows, if i recall, are the time you can work on parts in between ship and regional. If so, that time isnt of much help to people how dont have a prototype bot or anything to test on.
There are alot of logistics involved with an extension. We wouldnt mind driving our bot to Richmond, as it is less than an hour away. But many teams arent local, and so there isnt an easy way to ship a bot from California to Virginia, in a short time.
