Well ... I somewhat disagree here if we are going to make those special T-shirt,
they'd better be useful _during_ the GUADEC. Otherwise I don't see the point
a part from recognition but not everyone he's doing it for that. A tool for identification
is needed, whatever it be.

I disagree here too. A small core of volonteer, preferably local is absolully needed !
Asking help for moving around two chair will never be a problem, but with
a large group with loosely defined responsibility you are going to face ... lack of
responsability. And for any problem people will tend to turn to you two, if you're
willing to assume it won't be a problem for me :-)

Not sure if it's the most apropriate item. There are people
who don't like "girly bag" you know ... :-D
