I support 04:11:31 udinnet, please 04:11:43 ok then, what are the advantages of producing swags in a central place. Of course they will in a same standard for every country. But what about the shipping cost? 04:11:56 Isn't it a extra cost? 04:12:06 Isn't it an extra cost? 04:12:13 ! 04:12:25 eof, udinnet?? 04:12:31 eof 04:12:32 :) 04:12:36 Thank you, udinnet 04:12:41 tuanta please 04:13:18 udinnet, If we can come to FUDCon, we no extra charge, right? 04:13:46 yes, IMO, we should separate media (twice per year) and other swags (buttons, stickers, etc.) 04:13:58 of couse arifiauo but we only have one fudcon for year. But we have 2 releases per year 04:14:23 udinnet, that just for swags 04:14:31 :) 04:14:54 ok :) 04:14:56 ihmo, swags should be produced centrally by FUDCon APAC host, but media should be produced locally 04:15:11 ok that is cool 04:15:20 +1 04:15:24 does this make sense to you? 04:15:27 tuanta: +1 04:15:29 +1 04:15:29 eof. 04:15:40 Very good Tuanta, makes sense to me. 04:15:46 me too 04:15:59 ? 04:16:08 ok, dramsey 04:16:20 Any #idea #action #info for this from everyone. 04:16:21 eof 04:16:24 ! 04:16:32 +1 04:16:44 Yes, arifiauo 04:16:56 what if we make "central" place for media in each country? 04:17:52 arifiauo, that's country's issue. You can discuss with your local folks 04:17:59 +1 04:18:00 +1 tuanta 04:18:02 IMHO, it's good. 04:18:02 +1 04:18:06 arifiauo: the meaning of "central" can differ in each country, and hence decentralization helps when producing media locally 04:18:14 +1 04:18:40 ? 04:19:53 #idea for APAC: swags should be produced centrally by FUDCon APAC host (then participants can take them back after FUDCon), but media should be produced locally 04:20:09 +1 04:20:17 Excellent points. Please #idea, #info and #action your concerns as points. 04:20:17 Depends on country "Ambassadors" and country situation, therefore more freedom to help us all. :D 04:20:17 eof 04:20:22 +1 tuanta 04:22:40 Other thoughts or considerations?
