[CoLoCo] Name for t-shirt

Mon Aug 27 21:13:28 BST 2007

FYI:

If the SFD event does end up happening I can print up badges for anyone
who's going, similar to what you would get at a trade show. I've got a Xerox
business quality color printer and I'm sure we can dig up some lanyards with
ID holders. That way people can wear what they want and still be
identifiable.
