the list

[passat TS]

[ Converted text/html to text/plain ]

Shaun,

We got this service for free, and I would feel very uncomfortable to say
anything.

The only thing that I believe we need to do is help the poor souls that make
this happen.

I have no direct experience, but with somebody that can design the list
t-shirt on hand, we could create a series of stuff to sell (cups, mugs,
sweatshirts, hats).

I know some self sponsored rally teams that have this line of products
available through a third party, on what seems to be an on demand basis.

If they can, our list can too.

This seems to involve little work from the already overworking list masters.

If the list masters want, I'll  be glad to talk with these teams and figure
out how it works.

Let me know off list,

Carlos.
