With regionals spread out over the month of March, I don't think that not limiting designing, building, and debugging to six weeks would be effective or fair. For example, my team's first opportunity to test our robot in actual competition was at the New England Regional, held March 30 to April 1. Teams that competed at, say, the Southesat regional March 9-11 might have had an advantage over New England teams as they would have had much more time to modify their robots before nationals. Although the New England teams would have had that much more time to test their robots before the regional, that doesn't compare to seeing how your robot works in actual competition environment and being able to modify after observing its competition performance. Just my two cents...
