I'm a fan of providing an incentive for people to join. We have a
number of people that have joined without the incentive, and I think
it is possible people will buy swag in addition.
We can offer a combination where if they pay a little more money they
get a membership AND a T-Shirt or some such.

Playing the devil's advocate, I think there is a lot to be said for
motivating people to become actual members of the Foundation (and
send us $100 - or more - in the process). So I think that if the
chance to get either a ball cap or a mug or a t-shirt can motivate
people to join, then we will definitely benefit. After all, if we
did motivate 500 people to join to something free from the OpenID
store, then OIDF will net $50,000 minus 10% for the t-shirts. That
would be a solid outcome and solid support for the Foundation.

Yes!
People must understand that this is a way to help the Foundations
It's also a good way to participate for those who do not want to pay a
sponsorship
