Merchandise

[Mel Chua]

SLOBs is at 3am NZ time, so the chances of me attending are slim, but I 
would like to make a motion that SL *not* allocate central budget for 
marketing materials.

Instead, I'd like to suggest that SL provide a set of designs and easy 
manufacture/print options (as we're already doing for business cards and 
such) for things like lollipops, shirts, flyers, etc. - and encourage 
local groups to find the funds to get their own swag (and locally 
design/print/make their own as well).

Local resourcefulness is a wonderful thing to cultivate. ;)
