[arch-events] Arch Linux lanyards for FOSDEM
Hi there, I thought we could buy some Arch Linux lanyards[1] and put some home made badge on it so we can recognize ourselves at FOSDEM. I could do the order (and anticipate money) and then distribute them there; I'll be there on Friday, in the morning. Anyone want to join me? Or have a better idea? However, I don't know how much time shipping requires, I guess I should mail Dust for this. [1] http://schwag.archlinux.ca/product/lanyard/ -- Andrea

Hi Andrea,
Regarding the discussion we had on Twitter [1], I think indeed it's a
great idea.
Especially as I'll participative this year in the FOSDEM keysiging
event and we need a way to display easily our GPG and valid ID card.
I'll thus add them in a plastic envelop attached to a lanyard. I've
already a bunch of them (Firefox, etc.), but if this is an Arch Linux
one, it's even better ;-)
But in my regard, I'll arrive in Brussels on Friday in the evening
(18h-19h). Keep you informed via Twitter.
I'll take 3 of them if you don't mind. In that way of some of my
friend need one, I'll have enough, and this allows for you and me to
drop the unit price.
I assume benefits are for the ArchLinux community right? Btw, I wonder
how are donations managed at ArchLinux, I haven't seen a blog
article/official statement on the wiki yet.
Regards, and see you there ;-)

CC'ing arch-dev-public to let devs and TUs know about this.

I mailed Dusty Phillips about the shipping time and he replied that using regular shipping the lanyards will never arrive in time. He's talking with a private post service for a faster shipping method *and* (big news!): Dusty will donate a bunch of lanyards to be distributed to Arch Linux Developers and Trusted Users, but also to people involved in arch, but not officially yet. I'd like to know how many AL devs/TUs will participate to FOSDEM so I can keep one for each official contributor at least.

Since I'm involved in Arch (6+ years) the money have been spent for Arch Linux server hosting only (well, and one build machine). Regards -- Andrea
