The prices would be in €uro. ;) I agree with the idea but, if at all
possible, I would prefer that our swag is made out of environmentally
friendly materials. Especially the production of (regular) cotton for
t-shirts requires huge amounts of pesticides and water. I don't believe
that aligns well with the spirit of Free software. </treehugger>

Certainly, but even if people register for the free-of-charge ticket, of
course there should still be a good supply of swag for them to buy on
the spot!
