Gunther,

We are still interested in doing the design. 
If a corporate sponsor for the printing will step forward, we'd be happy to work 
their logo into the design.

Re: mod_perl bof Oreilly Conference TShirts

2001-06-19 Thread Gunther Birznieks

Apparently last year the quantity was 150 for US$10/shirt. This was a 2 
color shirt.

So the damage was US$1500.

However, there are two factors that may lower the cost.

One, perhaps not as many shirts have to produced because the conference 
attendence may be lower this year than last year (although I think the more 
TShirts the better!) ... So I'd rather this not be the case.

And two, Randal has generously proposed using a contact of us that may be 
able to produce similar or better quality for as low as US$5/shirt. Of 
course, so that I do not raise expectations falsely, I will add that this 
may depend on quantity and it remains to be made into a concrete 
negotiation with the supplier for these additional shirts.

So if the cost actually did go down to half, the cost for 150 shirts would 
be US$750.

Merely the cost of Windows 2000 Enterprise Edition. If a corporation out 
there can spend money on a proprietary operating system, surely they can 
help sponsor a rag-tag bunch of misfits on a mission to save the Earth... 
oh, sorry, got carried away while watching the SciFi channel...

Later,
Gunther

I'm already pumping out about 750 T's at TPC, so I don't think I can
be Yet Another Sponsor.  However, I've got a producer that can make

Only if you bring some fresh cranberry juice and a belly dancer. Yes, the
belly dancer!

Last week I was presenting mod_perl at the Linux World Show in Singapore
and we had a really nice social event with a babe belly dancer... hey,
Gunther was dancing with her... just look at his happy face :)
http://LWN.net/2001/features/Singapore/images/guntherbirznieks-tn.jpg (hi
Gunther) ...don't you regret that you weren't there?

...not talking about me :) the event was a way too short... but that's how
it's in Singapore, they go to sleep early, almost everything gets closed
at 10-11pm :(

Richard Stallman was there but he unfortunately didn't dance :(
The story is here: http://LWN.net/2001/features/Singapore/social.php3

BTW, her name was Francheska... and if you want to have her to dance for

Why was this scheduled during Matt Sergeant's AxKit presentation?

I dunno.  Stas asked me to reserve a slot for it.  I didn't specify a time
so this is what we got I guess.


Why not during a time slot when there are no mod_perl presentations?

Absolutely.  I've CC'd the ApacheCon planners so hopefully they can step in
and fix things.
