Also, some of the old game documents need to be easier to find. If you're trying to look through old KOP lists to figure out what something is, it gets difficult. And only some of the links on the archived site still work - so if you get to the right page, you still might not be able to get the files. IIRC, there was a Google Drive folder that had all of the game documentation going back to 1992. I don't remember where it was, but I saw it here on CD about 9 months ago. Really, we need to make the resource library more user-friendly. And make finding useful pages a lot easier. Maybe like the wpilib site.

TL;DR - FIRST should make the website open-source and make historical and current non-game manual and non-KOP list game documentation easier to find.
