Well we(Team 2974) are doing just that(well sorta)

We've created a fully functional version of the robot control aspect of the FMS/FMS Lite and now because that is our code we plan to adapt it to work with more electronics such as lighting, ESTOPS, and DS lights. This was the field control system used at GRITS(GA FIRST's off season competition) this past October with around 30 different teams so we know it can run the full field! We are calling/going to call it O!FMS for "Open FMS", however, we've been prepping it, the basic control code, for release by doing all sorts of commenting and making a users guide meaning it will not be publicly released until we finish that. Here's a link for anyone who wants to see what the system looks like!

Until its release if there's anyone who would like to try the system out and provide feedback just PM me and we'll work with you on that!
