 there are many people who participated just to get a badge for it, not for
 the sprint itself. Don't understand me wrong, but I would rather try to
 award a shirt to people who translate, let's say ''500-1000 strings'' or
 so. Even better if we could award nice shirts to people through all
 groups, not just L10n.

 we can run query on Zanata for members contributed 500+ string over the
 time. I think this number will be more than people participated in
 Translation sprint :)

 Yeah, that would be better, IMHO. My concern is to have people working
 hard on translations and don't reward them with a shirt, just because they
 missed the translation sprint.

 I think the goal is not different, it's the same, and rewarding
 contributors with a nice shirt is awesome. Let's just do it right and try
 to not miss anyone. Taking in consideration just a translation sprint
 which is also a thing for badge hunters, is probably not the right
 criteria. And yes, L10n folks are doing a lot of work and we should think
 about them!

 It's off topic, but here is the wiki page for the 10 years shirt, with its
 criteria. I know we probably missed some people, which is sad, but it was
 really hard for all to put together the list.
