As there is no Host for the IETF 83, the IAOC has decided to conduct a T-Shirt Design Contest to develop a unique t-shirt for the Paris meeting. The plan is for the community to submit designs, and for the community to select the winner. We will arrange for shirts to be produced in Paris and take orders via an online system prior to the meeting. T-shirts will cost approximately $25 USD. We will stop taking orders at least 10 days prior to the meeting so that we can get the shirts produced. While we may have a small number of additional shirts available for purchase onsite, attendees should not depend on that possibility. Note that we will only be able to sell t-shirts to actual IETF 83 attendees. The t-shirts are going to be printed in Paris, and carrying them back and then shipping them (or shipping them from Paris) would be costly and difficult. Also, in the interest of expediency, the system used to purchase t-shirts will be very similar to our social event ticket system. Because of the way the system works, only people who have registered for the meeting will be able to purchase a t-shirt -- they will need their registration number, just as they do when they purchase a social ticket. Timeline: 17 February -- Design Submission Deadline 20 - 24 February --Community votes to select winning design 27 February -- Winner announced Submission Details: Designs should be delivered as EPS or Adobe Illustrator files. A t-shirt template is available for download here: ietf.org/meeting/83/t-shirt-contest-template.eps. Your submission should include t-shirt color, and the design for both front and back of the shirt. You are welcome to include your signature as a part of the design. Please note: designs should include the IETF logo, but cannot include any company logos. Like an Internet-Draft, a t-shirt design submission is authored by individuals. Designs are to be submitted to: tshirtcontest@ietf.org The IETF logo can be found here: http://www.ietf.org/logo/ietf-logo.eps We look forward to receiving your creative designs. Note: in addition to glory, the winner of the contest will get a free t-shirt. Good luck! -Alexa ---------- Alexa Morris / Executive Director / IETF 48377 Fremont Blvd., Suite 117, Fremont, CA 94538 Phone: +1.510.492.4089 / Fax: +1.510.492.4001 Email: amorris@amsl.com Managed by Association Management Solutions (AMS) Forum Management, Meeting and Event Planning www.amsl.com <http://www.amsl.com/> _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
