No objections from me

The funny thing I found was that, after some LabVIEW experience with FLL, I didn't think figuring out the "new" FRC version would be much of a problem. I was sure wrong

But... even from that "basic" experience I didn't really have issues learning different languages later on. I think having some experience bossing computers around really helped to that end, actually.
