Does anyone put out Mint t-shirts? I plan to do a Linux workshop in October and will feature Linux Mint. It would be nice to wear a Linux Mint t-shirt at the event.

We've had problems with the shop and it has been closed some time, but it's obviously open again

You reach it from the main page too - an ad in the sponsors section

I'd like to know more about this workshop you are putting on. Is this for a university? Tech students, non tech?

The event is called Lindependence, I hope to secure a space at the Multnomah Art Center in Portland OR. It is open to the general public. I believe half the people of Portland would be happier using Linux Mint than Windows if they only knew about it! They need to be exposed to Linux in a simple and direct way.

I plan to hold it Oct 4 or 18th. it will run from 10-4 and we plan to give a short talk and hand out Live CDs and and do installs for all who bring their computers to the event. I'm working with Larry Cafiero of HeliOS Solutions out of Felton. CA. I'm looking forward to this event!

Oh yeah! I heard about Lindepenance from Christian at the Digital Tipping Point!

Larry is a good man. I hope this turns into a good experience for you guys. Is this your first time working with Larry on a project or have you worked with him before?

Please take pics and tell us stories. I would love to see how people respond to it. I got about 20% of the kids at the college I taught at to at least try Linux and about a third of those still use Linux.

This will be my first time working with Larry. I will take photos and document the event.

Good luck with the event - I'll be some thousand miles away

And order the tshirts early - and as I said - I did not remember that the shop was reopened

Thanks.

I sent a message to Clem about any donations for Live Mint CDs for the event. Is that OK?

How do I go about requesting Mint CDs to distribute to people at the event? (25-50 copies)

I think you should pm Clem about that - he's the one that's "doing business"
Remember he's got alot to do so it could take a while and use a good subject line

I send a pm to Clem on Friday. I shows that it was sent, but I see a 1 message in the outbox. Why would it list that if it says sent by the pm I sent but it doesn't show a record of it in the sent box?

It remains in the outbox until the recipient moves it from the inbox

Thanks for the clarification.
