It is so cool when a team finds a niche to help all the other ones. Chief Delphi has this forum, BuzzU with their College Student FIRST Alumni Mentor Database, the FIRST Codex, various team's White Paper areas, etc...

IMO THAT is not only great altruism, it's one of the best forms of Gracious Professionalism. Each team that provides a simple service highly increases the synergism for all of us.

Any team can become "the place to go" for something! I hope our rookie team someday comes up with a single, simple, cool service or archive to provide for everyone. I'm going to encourage the website group to think of something to do.

Cool... Does that mean you guys may consider inheriting the Advisor Locator database task if BuzzU ends up out the biz? (The "Buzz Biz"??? )
