The issue of the 5 meg is on the radar screen of FRCteams and they will issue an update if needed.

Close to a zillion....

FIRST does publish statistics that can be used by teams for promotional brochures for their team and presentations.
http://www.usfirst.org/who/content.aspx?id=160

2008/09 season
over 195,000 students
53,000 mentors
32,000 event volunteers

Not published, but about 70 staff at HQ and in the field.
