As Ludovic suggested, we need t-shirts for the volunteers. However, I think they are more a recognition gift to be given at the end of the conference rather than a tool to be identified and used during the GUADEC days. Why? Basically because we are trying to build not a small group of volunteers working full days and missing most parts of GUADEC but work with a bigger group of people that will assume some tasks some days, not the whole day. Also because washing t-shirts and having 2 per person is extra work/coordination. I wasn't joking when I suggested something like a hawaiian lei - http://www.lavahut.com/lei-traditional.htm (the cheaper versions widely available for Carnival etc), as visible as easy to take in/out and exchange. And friendly. :) Using something like flower necklaces we allow people to come and help us in the last minute, no need to find a t-shirt for you now. But it is good to have a nice details with the volunteers, this is why we can give them a t-shirt special edition to take home. I'¡d say the same design with different color, taking out the sponsors in the back and putting instead something like "I was there and I helped a lot" Also, I was thinking of having another detail for those registering as professionals. Well, yes, another t-shirt, also different color and also different sentence in the back, something like "Here goes a GNOME Pro". We have the resources to do this, in part because these participants are paying 150€/75€. Colors available: http://jerzeescolours.russelleurope.com/tabid/146/act/display/pid/15/Default.aspx What about green for the volunteers and red for the professionals. Also, we'd need to know how many we need, and which sizes. About the professionals, I would keep the same proportions we are having for the normal t-shirt. About the volunteers, we need to know who is inside the boat, be the reference http://guadec.org/GUADEC2006/team (page that needs update). -- Quim Gil /// http://desdeamericaconamor.org | http://guadec.org
