I'm a fan of Linux Libertine, personally (<http://www.linuxlibertine.org/index.php?id=1&L=1>), but I don't have much screen-printing experience. I think there should be something on the back though. At the very least, Twisted <http://twistedmatrix.com/> Building the Engine of Your Internet (Now I'm thinking that, for PyCon, we could have an alternate version of the shirt, done up like a concert tour shirt, except instead of listing locales we could list all of the tickets closed as 'fixed' in 2010, for anyone who worked on a ticket this year. I don't know if there are too many to fit on the back of a shirt though!)
