Excellent link. Great find.

Excellent presentation. It also explains why we had such a hard time turning last year with 6 pneumatic wheels.

As far as holonomic drive code is concerned, it is very simple, only a single line (FIRST provided a built in function). So there's no need to worry about the coding aspect of holonomic drive when making a decision between tank and holonomic.
