It was sent privately to the council and I'll be asking Russell to
send something publicly to linux-aus once I get back to him, to gauge
interest from the community.

So the idea of an online store has come up. Mainly to get rid of
excess LCA schwag. The issue is that it's not as simple as just having
an online store. You need someone at the other end to store the stock
somewhere and then post it every time a request comes in.

At the moment we are discussing having an existing shop sell what we
have on commission or some similar arrangement.

Cheers,
John
