Do you know the chaps on the Micromouse Forum?

http://www.micromouseonline.com/forum/

They seem like a nice bunch, met them at an event in Birmingham last
year. Sounds like they'll be turning out for the event in the National
Space Centre next month (May 2008).

Thanks for the reply Colin.

I wasn't familiar with the above forum, but I will definately have a 
look now that you have posted it. I have been interested in micromouse 
for some time so I recognise some of the more famous names on the web.My 
design will not be ready for the May 2008 event, but I wouldn't mind 
tagging along as a spectator - perhaps I will see you there?

I have just completed the coding in c of my algorithm and I am about to 
begin adapting it to ASM ...so far so good. However, I have been 
contemplating joining/sharing efforts in a partnership/small team so as 
to make the design as competitive as possible and to reduce the 
development cycle. Would you be interested in discussing this further?
Regards,
Vince

Sorry for the _LONG_ delay!

I'm not really involved in the Micromouse Events, I've been tagging 
along as they have a great venue and do run MiniSumo competions too.

Their forum is appears to be a great place to start, you'll probably 
find the help there with regard to the collaboration you're looking for. 
It's worth attending an event as a spectator, you'll learn a lot from 
watching and discussing the robots with other builders.

Best regards,
Colin
