**FIRST EMAIL**/Question & Answer System Opens Wednesday, January 10th!

[Kevin Sevcik]

Greetings Teams:

FIRST recognizes that you may have questions about game rules, robot construction, event logistics, and more. FIRST will offer a Question & Answer System, on FIRST Forums, which will allow teams to post questions pertaining to a specific section within the 2007 FIRST Robotics Competition Manual. Your posted questions will be reviewed by the appropriate moderator and answered in a timely manner. The Question & Answer (Q&A) system will go live on line on FIRST Forums tomorrow, Wednesday, January 10th at Noon, EST.

Also beginning at noon, EST on Wednesday, January 10th, your team's Main and/or Alternate Contact can access your unique Q&A User Name and Password by logging in to your TIMS record. The Q&A login info can be found on the Team Summary page in TIMS. Once the Q&A System is updated with the new 2007 information, it will be accessible here: http://forums.usfirst.org/ Please assign one individual from your team to act as the Team Rules Expert and only share your team's unique User Name and Password with him/her. This Team Rules Expert should be the only person responsible for posting questions to the Q&A System.

Before posting a question on the Q&A system, we encourage you to always look for the answers to your questions first within the 2007 FRC Manual. You can review the manual here: http://www.usfirst.org/frc/2007/manual
Good luck, and...Go Teams!
