Controle platforms and teired processing

[madhephaestus]

I'm in the process of developing a robotics development platform and communications protocol. I am wondering what would people like to see from their platforms and what features annoy the crap out of people. Also what is out there that people like and why. I'm a student at WPI and any input people have might become a reality.

MRS works great, why rebuild the wheel?

You should use everything that MRS has, except add an upload & compile function with programmers notepad, and link this to the device manager so you can upload, change the fuse, baud rate, etc right from one program.
