Secondly, punching CDs locally is much cheaper and faster than shipit.

Am afraid Canonical does not send free goodies like badges, cups or tees even to loco teams. These are merchandise items and max possible is they may be available for lesser price. We used to get limited number of stickers and sometimes pens but am not sure even about them. It is very economical to print stickers ourselves as we did during foss.in 2007. If you're interested we would be able to share the sticker designs with you. But there are certain design guidelines when creating derivatives out of Ubuntu logo, please read them carefully and follow them if you are going to design yourselves. Am not sure whether amachu aka Sri Ramados is a part of this list but you can find him in Ubuntu Tam (Tamil) Team. He is aware of resources for punching CDs locally as well as goodies like pens, etc. -- With Regards, Parthan SR "technofreak" GPG Key 2FF01026 Fingerprint 5707 ECBD 8D8D 8E6E 28F8 DFA5 938B D861 2FF0 1026 Weblog http://blog.technofreak.in -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
