Definitely good idea. I'd like to emphasize that people will not be 
buying "yet another t-shirt" but contributing to the GNOME Foundation. 
This is something we should make clear in the GNOME booth.

I also second the idea of selling the t-shirt while people are 
registering and have their "wallet" open, and to include the 
registration within the t-shirt price.

So $20 for 1 T-shit and 1 pass, T-shirt will be given when they show up 
at the event. That's definitely excellent.

Thanks.
