Thanks Tom for the message! I was wondering about this today. I may be jumping the gun, but I'm hoping to start t-shirt and pre-conferences planning very soon (now?). As regards t-shirts, do we change printers/shirt types/colors each year? Should we look for a PDX-based printer to support local business? PDX people tell me if you prefer a color. Otherwise, expect the call for tshirts designs to go out in the next few weeks, with voting happening in late November. We can work out the other questions in the committee. As regards pre-conferences, can someone give me an idea of what space(s) they might be in? How many we could have? In the next few weeks we can also put out the first call for pre-conf proposals, which can also give us an idea of tech/infrastructure needed. If I can help otherwise please let me know. I'm looking forward to c4l 2015.
