I understand this, and the purpose of this thread was not to imply that 
we are going tp stop giving away the free stuff, but more just an 
exploration of the items we could produce. I would definitely pay money 
for an few extra fedora lanyards or higher capacity fedora branded USB 
drive (even if i get both of these for free in the swag bag) I would 
especially have no issues spending this extra cash if proceeds went into 
helping fund getting contributors to flock itself!
