Hi Ollie,
Thanks for your interest! I've relayed your message to the Debian France
people. BTW, be aware we do organise requests for designs: We ask for a logo
yearly, for our DebConf conference. And about every two years, we ask for a
design for the Debian desktop, see
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianDesktop/Artwork .
Maybe that would be a good place to join us and contribute to our work?
Thanks again, Bye,
Joost

Hello !
I have a question about selling Debian merchandise : I've learned
about all that relatively recently after seeing someone wearing a
Debian hoodie, and I thought that I would "help" you by buying a
hoodie. And then I found the merch page and the list of sellers,
some of them listed as non-donator.
So, I thought "I'm not a real programmer (not the kind that would be
useful to you), I don't have much money, but I know how to draw !".
So I think that's my ticket to try to contribute to Debian :)
My question is : is it possible to use the IBAN available here
<https://france.debian.net/soutenir/#compte> to setup an account on
spreadshirt or something, so that every sale is directly wired to
your account ? I don't want to have to manage the sales as it would
be complex to justify to the irs of my country, and I don't want to
create a company just to be able to do that. So, sending all the
money directly to you, provided some people are interested in the
creations, would be the best option.
What do you say ?
In the meantime, have a nice day ! :)
Ollie.
