Quick note: I’m running a little behind my normal preseason schedule, but FRCS is very much alive and moving forward.

FRCS has always been a one-person project, and that hasn’t changed. I’m actively working on updates and fixes, though I’m a bit behind my usual preseason pace this year.

If you encounter an issue with a tool or a subscription, please know it will be addressed. Thank you for your patience as the season gets underway.
