Just like there are places in the US that make the items and handle shipping and everything else for you, I am sure there is in other countries as well. It would be really confusing I think to attempt a global store. I also am not sure what selling stuff under TDF would do for the non-profit aspect of the foundation. What I see is the US/CAN marketing teams setting up a place and then directing people to that site when they are out promoting LibreOffice. Then all the money that is generated from their store could go towards more Marketing in the area. I think seperating the funds like that would work just fine. I am going to end here for now, as I feel like I am rambling.
