Hello,

To help promote xiph's free formats. Consider having t-shirts and caps
with this image on them:

http://www.multimedia4everyone.com/xiph_it/underwing_16.svg

original svg:
commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Underwing.svg

I modified the svg and added the phase 'xiph it'. When someone googles
something it means to search for information. The phrase 'xiph it' means
to free your media.

Which the way the Internet is going with multimedia playing a central
role. Without free media the Web becomes another product. The free
nature of the Web is history.

Having t-shirts with the 'xiph it' image on the back. People will ask,
what does that mean, you would say 'it means to free your media' and
then point to the front of the shirt, where there would be 'xiph.org'
printed.

The wings in the image symbolize freedom, and that's what you get at
xiph.org.

To help fund xiph.org, anybody interested can place the 'xiph it' image
on their website and link it to the xiph merchandise website.

Good idea?


Keep up the good work,

Jose Ramirez
