Having read this and having short talks with EO's in that past its pretty simple

Geoff + Jenny took something that didnt belong to them without getting instruction or permission from the owner of said item. That is a pretty good definition of theft. I take around £2000 worth of robot related bits with me to events now. Id be seriously anoyed if some of it went walkies- I think Jonno is just looking out for his mates belongings at the end of the day (The other roboteers).

Jonno and robotslive are now working together in a very positive way- The FRA in my opinion are slowing them down by taking there sweet time over things. I dont blame Jonno for taking things into his own hands. Fair play.

Karoline and grants mention of technical checks- Im pretty strict as a tech checker. Ive been to events and failed a few robots.. then ive seen other signitures on there tech forms.. I dont agree with that. I was tech checking at Rebel robots when that happened.

Geoff did fail to check a robot with lipos at Rebel robots, i know that because it was my robot and having spoke to him at the last FRA meeting he had little or no understanding of li-po batteries. I dont hold anything against him for this, Not many people do know alot about them, but it would be a good idea if the FRA could give a little training to the tech checkers that dont know anything about them. But thats a different discussion.

No i dont want someone thats been involved in a theft as president.
