Hi Gert-Jan,<br>
The marketing committee is quite dormant, so pretty much any
suggestion you put forward which you are prepared to make happen
yourself will be fine.<br>
<br>
In the past, OSGeo has made use of cafepress for shirts, hats, etc:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.cafepress.com/osgeo">http://www.cafepress.com/osgeo</a><br>
<br>
You might want to look into that, or find something similar.<br>
<br>
I'd suggest also consider distributing an OSGeo-Live USB. (8 Gig or
larger). This is a great marketing pipeline for each of the projects
on OSGeo-Live. It can also be used in workshops. And delegates can
use it when they go back to their organisations and are asked to
give a presentation about the conference to their workmates. The
OSGeo-Live presentation is on the USB. <br>
