Libraries would work for the teams who write the code in C, however, we used LabVIEW and only the autonomous uses a custom VI and even that is quite small and easy to reproduce. The entire Buckeye Regional program we used was redone in <30minutes do to a massive fail on my part. Definately easy to reproduce, granted we didn't use a camera nor any special sensor driven processes [traction, robot avoidance, etc.] which would take longer, but either way, As i said before, releasing code would be nice but not all teams are going to.
