OSCON Swag? Enamel pins

Hi!

We're not positive about the OSCON booth, but in case we do get it,
what's the lead time on getting a few bags of enamel pins?

I'll have to check with the manufacturer.
Also, this time I cannot foot the bill so we'd
need someone to do so.  I'll respond with more
information a bit later.

Cool!  I can assist with securing funding once we have a cost.

Thanks a ton, Elein!

Unfortunely it takes 4 weeks plus shipping time.
It is a stretch but if *I order today* then we can
get them in portland by 7/22.  There is no way to
get them to me before I leave for portland myself.

There are no extras lying around.

The pricing is this:
500 @ .64 $320
1000 @ .54 $540

If people are going to want this schwag, we might want
to order anyway to have a stash on hand.  I did not order
more when I ran out last time.  Previously I had ordered
about 2000-4000 pins.

Options:
A.    Order for portland, arriving Thurs
    Order for stash
B.    500 pins
    1000 pins
    other amount (even cheaper).

I can put it on my credit card and the reimbursement can
come to me.

Based on the short notice, let's just order the minimum: 500 pins.  I
have authorization to spend SPI funds on this, and to compensate Elein.

In case we can't ensure delivery on time, I have a bag of them (not
sure exaclty how many, but it's "a bunch") that I haven't been able to
unload yet. If someone is going to both char(10) this weekend and
OSCON, I can pass them over there. Need to know by tomorrow in that
case.

If we can ensure delivery, getting new ones with SPI funds sounds like
a better idea still :-)

Thanks, Magnus. Sounds like we're going to buy some.

I'd be happy to receive the pins & can send u my address if there
isn't a suitable hand-off person to be found.

I've placed the order for 500 pins to be delivered on 7/22 to David Wheeler.
This is a rush order so hope for the best.  I will get a bill for it and
we can deal with that later.

Magnus, if you can get the pins you have back over to oscon that will be great
since ours won't arrive until Thursday of the conference.

That requires there to be somebody who goes to both char(10) and OSCON...

ping said "somebody"? Anybody who is, or know someone who is?

Give the pins to Dave Page and require him, as an EnterpriseDB employee,
to mail it to whomever you want.  :-)
