It shouldn't be a secret that I'm in favor of this. For the last few DebConfs, we've had some sort of "drinking vessel" even if it was a necessity due to the conference logistics. I've quoted out a few different kind of bottles (some just for water, some that are hot/cold, so can also be used for coffee), and am confident that we can get nice-branded drinking vessels for ~$5 each, plus some cost due to expedited shipping (not gonna break the bank). Here's the deal... WE NEED TO DECIDE NOW. The bottles need to be ordered *Monday* to make sure they're produced, shipped and signed for before the start of the conference in a week. If we don't have consensus/approval/support by 8am PDT Monday morning, the default is that we're not getting bottles, because we won't be able to. Cheers!
