  30 2. Promotion
  31  a. t-shirts for Ubuntu-be - Update
  32 woutervddn and gadeynebram are working on the topic. It appears that the model v9 (choosen by poll) is more expensive and has a difficult design (COF on the side). A last poll limited to less expensive designs will be organized by woutervddn. When final decision is taken, 100 t-shirts will be ordered and pre-orders will be possible. Suggestion of sizes : 5S, 20M, 30L, 20XL, 10XXL and 15 girlieshirts. Goal is still that the t-shirts are available for the FOSDEM 2011.
  33 Later, a second order with an improved design can be proposed. 
  34  
  35  b. Ubuntu promotion material for fairs/events 
  36   - A few stickers “Powered by Ubuntu” should be available in Events boxes and in booths/events.
  37   - Are there other stickers or other material available by Canonical or others ? 
  38   - JanC has received a table cloth and a banner from Canonical and the conference pack he ordered.
  39   - An Ubuntu-calendar 2011 (box 12 sides in do it yoursef) exists in Spanish and French:
  40  http://spreadubuntu.org/es/material/unusual/calendario-ubuntu-ubuntu-calendar
  41  http://spreadubuntu.org/fr/material/unusual/calendrier-ubuntu-ubuntu-calendar
  42 It should be easy to translate the calendar (svg-file). Colours could be modified (ink-friendly-printed at home). To be printed on 160 g. (eventually coloured) paper. woutervddn will try. Other volunteers ?
  43   - Flyers Ubuntu-be A6 (2009): our stock will be empty in june 2011. Are there ideas for a new design ?
