That would definitely be one of the criteria in choosing a partner. I would like to know more about this, and evaluate the costs/ requirements to include some PloneGov products in the store. Yes, good idea to have PloneGov swag as well. Nate Xavier ___ Evangelism mailing list Evangelism@lists.plone.org http://lists.plone.org/mailman/listinfo/evangelism

[Evangelism] Plone swag
If you were at the Plone conference last week you probably noticed the awesome swag that Sixfeetup was giving away: - Plone bumper stickers - Plone logo stickers - Buildout Quick Reference Cards - Plone bottle openers Buy them at http://sixfeetup.com/swag and Sixfeetup will donate 50% to the Plone Foundation. I think we should set up a shop.plone.org site where people could buy Plone t-shirts and other stuff to show their support for Plone. I know Gabrielle (from Sixfeetup) is also keen to do this. Jonah Bossewitch (cc'ed) set up a Cafepress store a couple years ago (http://www.cafepress.com/plonestore) but these products are using the old logo and there's been some question as to the quality of the merchandise sold on Cafepress. Look at what other open source CMSes are doing: http://shop.joomla.org/ http://drupal.org/node/15101 Chris - could we set up a PloneGetPaid shop at shop.plone.org to sell this stuff? All proceeds could go to the Plone foundation which could then be used to spend on marketing efforts. Let me know who else is interested in this idea.
