Re: [openFIRST-devel] Fwd: General Help

[David Di B. <dav...@gm...>]

No problem,

Just wanted to make it apparent that anything involving openFIRST directly,=
=20
should be brought to the attention of Tim or I.

On that note I think it would be a great idea to have openFIRST members=20
become involved in other groups, if the time can be made available. A coupl=
e=20
questions I'd ask them are:

   - How much work will be involved?=20
   - What exactly is involved?=20
   - How will our members benefit and how will it benefit FIRST in the=20
   long run?=20

I'd suggest others send in their queries as well, then either Tim and I can=
=20
respond to the request at once.
