Hmm, I wonder if you never attended any of the Debian events in Germany or Austria, because over here we have these things. There is a quite living team around this that has a larger variety of goods like shirts, keychains, posters and of course the flyers which are translated into many languages and have an alioth project for them: <http://debian-flyers.alioth.debian.org/> Also the Debian UK people have a broad selection of shirts, did you miss such events, too? I'm not saying that things can't get improved, I am just totally puzzled by your wording and you making it sound like that there isn't anything around these days... > I would like to set up a Debian Marketing Team, whose work would > be to organise all the promotional stuff (logos, t-shirt designs, > wallpapers, etc.) so that the project can officially endorse good > designs, and to make the ultimate decision on visual stuff such as CD > covers, splash screens, etc. I also wonder if you really missed the <http://www.debian.org/events/material> part of our website? The /events/ pages are on our website for ages but more and more get (actively?) ignored by a big part of Debian - but they aren't hidden in any way and were always happy to welcome help. Do you want to start off completely new - if so, why? If not, why didn't you mention the current available stuff? So long, Rhonda
