Re: LabVIEW vs C/C++
"Lagging" may not be the right word. As Greg mentioned, the Beta teams were very successful in using C and C++ and there is plenty of software written and tested.

LabVIEW for cRIO has been around a LOT longer than C/C++ for cRIO. In that sense, C/C++ will always be lagging.

But that doesn't mean that the tools, functionality and tech support that teams receive over the next few months will be any different. From what I can tell, NI has provided as much or more support for the C/C++ tools as for their flagship LabVIEW tools. WPI, FIRST and others are, of course, "all over" both tools.
