Err no no. What I meant was that instead of shipping stuff from US
(unless it is for an US based "recognition"), how about empowering the
local groups to do the swag according to the design and then reimbursing
that ? Every 10 USD saved [in shipping] can turn out to be useful. This
would also bring the silent (and invisible to community locally ?)
contributors to the forefront and get both the local groups and them
interacting.

ps: I do know about the event funding thing (it helped us a lot) :)
