Just a couple of quick thoughts on the gift ideas (I've got an exam in a couple of hours >.< ) so not too deeply considered: - re the star naming: seems like a nice idea BUT it's just some company that has set themselves up to do it and you're just paying for some cute paperwork. We probably have an astro geek here somewhere that could create a website, star map and certificate of our own! - playing cards - not bad but for most people will sit in a drawer somewhere - T-shirts are always good but they wear out. Trinkets (cufflinks, keychains etc) and mugs last a little longer. Lanyards are funky. My favorite trinket idea would be a nice chunky (one inch?) geeko that could be used as a keyring, brooch, etc as desired. - awards wall, nice idea - did I see something about an island? Membership to a Second Life island? very cool. - sponsor project/research/zoo penguins or geekos in members names + certificate/photo - signed copies of Torvald's autobiography? (expensive I know, just brainstorming....) I agree to some extent with Bryan's concerns about degree of contribution, but, I think those of us who only contribute sporadically or in small ways very much appreciate the work of those who are able to contribute more. like the 'iContribute' idea too. if a larger obejct, "with thanks from openSUSE" written on it somewhere. cheers Helen -- IRC: helen_au helen.south@opensuse.org helensouth.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
