[VisCom] Shirts and CafePress

[Sarawut Ninsawat]

Dear Tyler,

My name is Sarawut,I am a doctoral student in Osaka City University and 
also Dr.Venkateash 's student. I will be a volunteer during Mapasia2006 
in Bkk for OSGeo promote work. I think 10 - 15 shirts also would be fine.

Best regards

Sarawut
