Finding Gizmo and DS versions? #78

|
Is there an easy way to determine which version of Gizmo and Driver Station are loaded on each device? With updates in the repository and kickoffs starting soon, how do we know what's loaded where? I'm assuming that with the recent changes, using the latest versions would be best for stability and all. Please share any versions that don't match. Thanks! |
