Directly from the Yahoo! message board, teams won’t have to do a Bill of Material this year. So that means less work for everyone! Woohoo! Wonder how the inspectors are supposed to check the robots for legal material now…
"Contrary to the manual and other communications we may have made, FIRST is not requiring, or even asking, teams to submit a Robot Bill of Materials for 2002. Apologies for any confusion around this.
(To pre-empt an anticipated question, they won’t be used for anything anywhere in the Competition. It would be a waste of teams’ time to submit one.)
