That was the impression I got from your Q&A, yes. I've followed up with a somewhat more explicit question of my own. They seem to produce better results:

A few more clarifications on the recent questions concerning the IFI KITBOT chassis and <R32>. Specifically, <R32> as written only pertains to COTS ITEMS from previous ROBOTS entered in a FIRST competition, and COTS ITEMS no longer commercially available. I presume the KITBOT chassis is covered under ITEMS from previous ROBOTS, as it is obviously still commercially available. So I would like to know which of the following would be legal:

1. A 2008 KITBOT chassis, from the 2008 KoP, that was never used on a ROBOT entered in a FIRST competition.
2. A 2008 KITBOT chassis, purchased in addition to the 2008 KoP chassis, that WAS used on a ROBOT.
3. A 2008 KITBOT chassis, purchased in addition to the 2008 KoP chassis, that was never used on a ROBOT.

Finally, if #3 is illegal, what would be the specific cut off date for purchase of a KITBOT chassis that would make it legal? That is, given that the KITBOT has been continuously available for purchase since the 2008 Kickoff, when did it lose the status of "custom made for FIRST"?
