Re: Spoiler: Could this be the new software for the FRC 2006?

Bahh... I think you programmers are overlooking something. While it might be easier for the initiated, C++ is a nightmare to learn in a matter of weeks for people with no prior experience. For small teams who barely get away with programming enough code to make their robot move in a few directions, this thing could be a godsend. For people who don't understand C, this could help them to actually have some autonomous code among other cool features that wouldn't have been possible before. True, it would be a bad thing to require the use of it for all FIRST teams, as many teams have programmers that are fully capable of coding in C, but I think it's shortsighted to blast something that you aren't familiar with.

Ultimately, used as another tool to help teams get off the ground faster, this thing could be great.
