So, I'd be unlikely to wear a kilt (well, ok, not seriosuly or enough to buy a nice one), but I would be extremely likely to wear a scarf. Do we get the material (or scraps or something)? I'd be super interested in ordering some material to make a scarf or something, if it'd help bring down the cost a bit. > > [0] http://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf7/Tartan#Future_Orders > [1] http://www.geoffreykilts.co.uk/gentskilts.html > -- > Wolodja <deb...@babilen5.org> > > 4096R/CAF14EFC > 081C B7CD FF04 2BA9 94EA 36B2 8B7F 7D30 CAF1 4EFC
