More eyes on the code will result in better code. Hardware is not required to do "code review" or read and digest documentation. However, time is required for all these tasks.

FIRST success is based on thousands of volunteers putting in hundreds of thousands of volunteer hours. The build season is already intense enough. I have given many FIRST software and hardware workshops. For a new topic, my preparation starts several months ahead of the scheduled date (I have to squeeze the work in around the day job and family committments). 18 teams cannot possibly meet the need for all of the training and workshops that need to be given for the 2008/09 season. Get all the information out ASAP so that we can ALL begin digesting, learning, and preparing.
