I would split features in some smaller groups and put 3-5 of them on a
list. Thus these flyers could be better targeted (and cheaper to produce).
It could be "DE flyer", "Network flyer", "Programming flyer", "Spin flyer"
and so on. These might be the same groups as in Categories or maybe some
other subset by Ambassador's choice, if he thinks that a certain event
needs a specialized set of features to talk about.

If we create more or less automatic way to produce these flyers, they would
be easy to customize. That's why I want a template more then just a
ready-to-print flyer.

The poster idea is also interesting. Since you can have one poster and talk
with people staying in front of it, pointing in particular features or
letting them choose ones they interested in. But this poster will not be
reusable like an general roll-up, because it talks about current release
only. So if it will take a lot of time and money to create and print - may
be it is not worth it.

As for the text and QR: I think it is important to have the description
printed. Because you won't understand the feature just by reading the
title. And at an offline event it is not so easy to go online, especially
during the discussion with the ambassador. You can make description in
rather small font, it won't be a problem for interested readers. And then
there should be a link to feature page as QR code for later use.
