Re: Has FIRST Crossed the Chasm?

Shawn,

You raise a very good point, here. Those of us who have been around FIRST for a long time tend to be a lot more forgiving of its flaws. We are definitely at a critical point in the program's evolution, and it will be interesting to see how the organization responds to this challenge. Can FIRST bring its programs to the mainstream, while still retaining the elements that make it successful? I certainly hope so, but only time will tell.
