I think many similar topics will be covered at both events. Just don't mistake quantity for quality.

I hope no one expects that but maybe I'm wrong. I've seen this happen in the hacker/maker community in the past where conferences diverge and you end up with different topics and speakers going to each. There are a lot of rockstars in FRC. Hopefully more of them step up and who knows, creating the opportunity could bring more of them out. While Karthik has always been Karthik, I don't know that he has always been Karthik*... if you know what I mean.

*The man who gives amazing talks for TED and FIRST and has a ton of enthusiasm and passion. Though I suppose its entirely possible he was forged that way and broke the mold in the process.
