Please report any issues on Github. If you do not have a Github account, feel free to file a bug report/send your query to marzogh@icloud.com. I work on this project in my spare time so you might not get an immediate reply to your email, but rest assured I will get back to you ASAP.

Disclaimer:

This code is yet to be tested on the actual robot build. However, this is the final version of the code that will be tested on the robot build. If you are looking for code that works out of the box, please wait for the final release - due sometime late Dec 2014.
I do not accept any responsibility for any damage that you might cause to your test jig when using my code. Remember, as with most pre-release/amateur code - USE AT YOUR OWN RISK
