FRC Penultimate Manual Updated

The FRC Penultimate Manual is supposed to serve as an all-around guide on how some teams do various things, and some information that I wished I had known when I started FRC. Now, I understand that actual competition is considered by quite a few to be the only real way to "understand" FIRST & FRC, but hopefully this document gets people adjusted to the culture, and to understand more, faster.

Since the last significant publication, the following changes / additions have been made:

• Added FIRST Crash Course
• FIRST Overview
• Regionals vs Districts
• FIRST History
• Who Are Mentors
• Who Are Volunteers

In addition, the content in the following sections has been created or received significant overhaul:

• Business
• Design
• Outreach

Special thanks to our contributors on GitHub (where we actually edit it too), and teams 1257, 2791, 1228, 4263, 612, and 4150, as well as members of the FRC Discord Server.

Contribution guidelines (and how-to) are available on the GitHub README.md file.

This is a great collection of information, it looks like you put a lot of work into it! Seems like the content would be a great fit for adding to FIRSTwiki.

Far more than I should have If you or the other volunteers would like to copy the Markdown document to the FIRSTwiki, they absolutely can! Only requessts on my part are this:

a) Link back to either the GitHub Repo or the GitHub link to the document specifically. That way people can find the most up-to-date version of it.

b) Provide proper attribution to all of the people who contributed to it. (basically just include the README.md.)

I scrolled to the bottom of the page and was sad because you misspelled the acronym.
