I like that idea (and the idea of it as something that exists apart from the conference budget, but perhaps funds scholarships in the following year). I think last year someone suggested putting all the t-shirt submissions in there (not just the winning one - It lets folks buy the conference shirt, but also others that might appeal to them). I think anyone in the community could register http://shop.cafepress.com/lisforge and manage it as a means to fund scholarships (or contribute in some other way - depending on the amount raised).
