You'll have good company with the CSAs; Joe Ross and Joe Hershenberger

You may have to change your name to Joe

Looking forward to helping inspect for the first time at OC and for an awesome set of teams at our inaugural event!

My middle name is Joseph, so I might be able to work that out

Technically I'm only signed up to inspect, but I figured that after Thursday the need for inspectors goes down and CSA needs goes up, so I can help wherever's needed.

I will similarly be there as an (official) inspector and (unofficial) CSA. So we should be well covered at this event for control systems!

So OCR has Python and .NET support, what about C++, Java, and LabView?

All joking aside, Joe Hershberger works for National Instruments and is the key developer of the roboRio firmware images and robot side NI libraries, and naturally is also rather familiar with LabView . Joe Ross is very knowledgeable in both Java and LabView and has contributed to the C++ and Java libraries. As for myself, I reimplemented the Java and C++ NetworkTables for 2016, rewrote much of the Java JNI layer for 2016, and implemented the C++ and Java support for several of the new sensors this year. Thad is also a contributor to the C++ and Java libraries. So we will have about as complete of language coverage as you can get outside championships!

I am afraid of Pythons. But I'll drink Java while scoring a C++ on my programming tests while setting in my cube with a LabView.

I think I'll stick to checking bumpers.

[Boltman]

And I'll be there for my first "support" event--in stripes for first time.

This regional has some of the best volunteers imaginable. Can't wait to kick this event off this morning!
