I love both of the designs, but I think focusing on the "Friends" Foundation
here will do a better job of helping people feel welcome and part of a community
(and thus stay around longer).
If we focus all of our accolades around achievement, then people who drift away
from active contribution might feel less welcome than people who feel like part
of a family.
I straight up prefer the "friends" shirt. but am also very much in agreement with stephenlangdon
Yeah, last time it was great and people were very happy to get one. So, it's a good idea to make it happen again.
The shirt is for the most active contributors of the teams, so it would fit better to choose the 'Fedora contributor' shirt, but from a design POV the 'friends' shirt is more beautiful :)
If these designs are final and we cannot get a better 'contributor' one, I would vote for 'Fedora friends'.
Thanks to Jiri for the idea.
