I know... that's why I've tried to provide timely workarounds, fixes, problem notifications, feature implementation examples, and support the best I can so that teams will not be held up by the release schedules. It's not ideal to need to patch these things manually, but it's also not good to force every team to install and keep track of 10+ updates in various languages that would all be released independently and out of phase with each other. Many teams can't keep up with the one update released at kickoff.

That's quite understandable. Maybe in future seasons it'd be a good idea to do something along the lines of providing weekly updates that merge in the most critical patches for each language; updates that are helpful but not necessary would be included at longer intervals, perhaps only once per season.
The updates could be optional (e.g., not an 'official mandatory' team update) until the season draws to a close to prevent teams freaking out over things that aren't affecting them until ship draws close.
In any case, thanks a lot for your replies and the hard work you've been doing to make the lives of FIRST teams easier
