Just a note along the lines, the free software foundation do this every event they are and even if the items are overpriced everyone understand the price and products are a simbolic transaction for what really is a donation to the project. FSF is pretty successful with this scheme same as other foundations like Mozilla. A very old proposal I had for OOo Marketing (almost 2 years ago) is to build a store for OOo. Mozilla generates around 2 million dollars a year with theirs. Of course is more than just tshirts but also stuffed animals, cups, stickers, caps, batches etc. -- Alexandro Colorado OpenOffice.org Español IM: j...@jabber.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@marketing.openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@marketing.openoffice.org
