Hi Al.

I'm a beta team tester, and long-time Chief Delphi lover, so don't take this post the wrong way.

As part of my team's responsibility to FIRST, (for letting us have the pleasure of debugging the new system), we're obligated to monitor and post information on the public Beta Test forum they've setup for centralizing information about the new system.

http://forums.usfirst.org/forumdisplay.php?f=743

This is an UNMODERATED forum, so there is no pre-vetting of informtion, and it's instant.. It's also open for anyone who registers.

This is also not an "exclusive" deal where we can't post elsewhere (quite the contrary). It just means that "in theory" this should be the best place to get factual information from teams and developers using the new controller.

Since we are in such a strong "learning mode" it's difficult for me to monitor multiple forums. I want to respond to as many questions as possible, and luckilly there don't seem to be so many right now ???. But any day now it's going to be insane.. I just know it.

So, politics aside, if you want to capture the attention of beta testers, you should definately (also?) post "new control system' questions to the FIRST forum...

Phil.
