Hmm, I think that that requirement could be interpreted in multiple ways. Perhaps when it refers to "Veteran teams who did not compete at the 2008 FIRST Championship," it could mean that if you were a veteran team at the time of the 2008 Championships who did not compete, then you would be qualified for this open registration. But then again, it's still open to interpretation. It would certainly be helpful for FIRST to clarify!
