Folks,
In addition to doing Chris a favor  , we had a few thing to iron out; but...
I am going to stick my neck out and say that the initial release is literally hours away (should be less than [Edit] 48 [/Edit]). We have it "built", We are in the process of getting it onto/into a couple of download sites. Watch this thread for a link announcment.
If you are at the San Antonio or New Jersey Regionals LM folks are going to set up 5th Gear there.
I'm bracing my self for the inevitable flood of bug reports and requests for improvements - Go ahead and fire away once you have used it a little bit - First releases can always use improvement.
After a quick search in this thread, please post new bugs/requests here and David, Jim and I will get to them as soon as we can.
Blake

you are going to gear that down right? Otherwise your robot will take about 10 minutes to reach its top speed of mach 2.6. - M. Hicken [more]
