Message-ID: Hi Web Folks, The PSF Trademarks Committee has set a policy to start including blurbs for authorized merchants who use our trademark. FWIW, part of this agreement is for them to make donations if their sales exceed $1000 on said merchandise. Please add Elegant Stitches to http://www.python.org/community/merchandise/including the blurb Janet provides and her logo attached here. Yours, David Mertz Chair, PSF TC Director of the PSF etc. On Mon, Jul 22, 2013 at 9:32 AM, Janet Lindstrom wrote: > David, > > Yes I would like to be included on the python merchandise page. > > Here is the copy: > > Elegant Stitches has been providing quality gear and apparel to the Python > community since 2006.
