Eva I know, so the next step is to get this known to the people who attend 
this mailinglist. So do I need to email Kernelconcepts when I want for 
example 200 pins for doing KDE-promo in my country. It boils down to the one 
question: "I want to promote KDE, where can I get stuff". If "getting stuff" 
means paying for something with a small fee than I don't mind. It is not 
realy visible where we can get KDE-gear.

Okay than I'm interested in these pins. (say 100 or so)

Great, this is good news. Also I want to avoid duplicate efforts because in 
The Netherlands we have printed also some t-shirts. That was a bit expensive 
for us -> actualy for Rinse de Vries (rinse@kde.nl)

My suggestion is that we list this stuff in one doc or so. "Who can I contact 
for these pins" "Where can I buy t-shirt at a costprice?" "What about the 
possibilities of shipping outside europe ?"

btw .. It is meant as constructive critiscm, I appreciate the work of 
events.kde.org.  Just some thoughts about this whole promo/ events thing. 

Take care'
