Re: pic: What's all this East West Collaboration business?
I really like the open collaboration idea, very cool way to include many teams and get them hooked up with experienced FIRST members.
A few things I would suggest:
1. Since one of the opening paragraphs states an objective of this initiative is to help create sustainable robotics programs, getting a few mentors with specific fundraising/management experience would be very important IMO.
2. Additionally, it would seem at first glance that the mentors on your list are spread very thin, given that there are 6 mentors listed and 10 teams. Maybe require that each team puts forward an expert in at least one field? I realize some teams might be new altogether, but there are quite a few 3+ year teams on that list that are not contributing a mentor. Collaboration requires give and take, not just take.
All in all, I like the idea, I'm just afraid you guys might get swamped... I look forward to seeing how the project progresses.
