Re: IFI Responds to the Community
They (FIRST reps) will probably talk with IFI and whomever the new control system supplier would be (if there is one already, but I can't imagine there not being one in mind given the situation) before they make an official statement.

I agree that it isn't a pressing build season crisis; all the proposed changes are for the 2009 season. So I wouldn't expect a statement immediately. But to not offer any explanation at all would be strange/disappointing. Even if it is strictly a business decision, some other supplier is giving a huge donation or something, I think the explanation is worth something.
