Hooray
The Golem Group / UCLA was selected for the "Group of 40" in the DARPA Grand Challenge.DARPA was peculiarly ham-fisted about making this announcement. First they implied that they would announce the decision on June 1, then on June 1 they said the announcement would be made June 6. (Why?) Then today I received an email saying, "See the attached letter concerning your status in the DARPA Grand Challenge." There was no attachment. Then there was a second email with no attachment. Then a third email, "We apologize for the inconvenience. You will receive an email with an attachment some time today."
I actually found out we had been selected, not from DARPA, but from a reporter, who clued me in to a press release that DARPA had made available to the media (but not to the public directly, or to the teams).
Anyway, hooray for us.
