FYI: I've been catching up on a week's mail, and replied before I saw
Quim's input on the t-shirt sizes (the L is like a usual M). Fewer Ms,
and more Ls, seems reasonable. But as Behdad says, we should take it
easy on the XLs. 30 is probably fine.

15% ladies = 75 shirts - are we being optimistic? There were well under
50 women last year.

Cheers,
Dave.
