Lowes.Hello, all,

Now that we will begin building parts of the robot for testing and competition, 
we need to focus in on rules which must be followed to even be allowed on the 
playing field. Passing inspection and having appropriate BOM paperowork will be 
a gate to playing.  Knowing all rules and your specific subsystem thoroughly 
are key for interviews with all the judges who will be stopping by our pit to 
talk to you.

We can start preparing by reading the Robot section of the documentation found 
here: 
http://www.usfirst.org/uploadedFiles/Robotics_Programs/FRC/Game_and_Season__Info/2011_Assets/04%20-%20The%20Robot_RevD.pdf

My suggestions:
  a.. pp 2-4:      All
  b.. pp 5-9:      Bumper team
  c.. pp 9-16:    All
  d.. pp 16-20:  Control system
  e.. pp 20-21:  Manipulator team
  f.. pp 21-26:  Software team
  g.. pp 26-28:  Manipulator team
  h.. pp 28-29:  Software team/Control system
  i.. pp 29-30:  All
  j.. pp 30-32:  Minibot team
As we build, any part that goes on the robot needs to make it to the parts list 
to be submitted at competition. Maybe we have an update to a posted sheet at 
the end of every lab session.

Maria
