How behind are we?

So far, the first 3 weeks (programming wise) has been to implement all the sensors and test them. What should have taken a week took 3 weeks because of disagreements and arguments between programmers and other minor problems. I believe it was the lack of communication on my part that slowed down the process. So far, we do not have a working arm or code for the arm. The drive code remains almost unchanged since week one. It just feels slow overall this year. Last year went quicker because I was the only one programming and everything is in my head. My mentors had this lecture on graphing and verifying everything. Today, I spent about 2 hours getting data, filtering through the data (20,000 data points) then graphing the data to only find out that the encoders are not working correctly. It turns out I forgot to update the libraries and that there was a major bug in the last year's library. Now I look like a arrogant, narrow minded tyrant.

So far what we have:
Working drive
Minibot deployment system
Pretty much it...

What we are working on:
Arm
Minibot
Minibot and deployment system interaction
Communication between people
