Good day. Actually in EMEA there are no swags. How is that possible that in the moment of a new Fedora release we cannot organize a Fedora release party?
Best regards

Swag is now served by Mindshare. You were sent swag for a generic release party of 50. Can you help me understand what you think you should have gotten?
We have swag and have been shipping it.

Maybe I am the only one who realizes that or like most of the time the only one who says something to that.
Since when is that so? And more why? The production of swag was always in the hand of the regions and there was a good reason for that. Why swag has to produced in Europe for x times that much and then shipped adding even more costs. Not speaking of custom and postal troubles you have in some countries

What do you mean with generic?

Well, swag always used to be made of: - baseball hats; - winter hats; - Fedora polo shirt; - Fedora pins; - Fedora mugs; - Fedora t-shirts; - Fedora stickers in at least 3 different types

Yes
Please don't let this be a blocker for you to organize a release party. :-) There is definitely swag and budget available to help you organize a release party for F29.
The problem is that this is going to be a trend. Even the past year, when I ordered swags for Linux day events in all Italy, we got an insufficient amount of material. But this year the low amount of material reached a ridiculous level.
Hello everyone,
For what is worth, I have a small box of swag sitting downstairs in Stuttgart. If anyone is in the area and needs swag, they can get it there and it's probably going to be faster than opening a request. So far, I have some gloves, handbooks, DVDs (old but well), tons of stickers of about any kind, pins, transfers and something else I forgot.
Kind regards, Silvia FAS: Lailah

In this case it means a party with no specific theme other than the release.

We have been holding off on printing new swag pending the logo change as we thought it would be done sooner. Now that it isn't we can print more items, but we need to understand how these items help us so we print the right stuff, not just stuff.

I reviewed the ticket and the event report and don't see where was it mentioned that there wasn't enough swag or that there were problems. I am sorry to hear this feedback so long after the event. We based the shipment on the number of estimated attendees and standard swag distribution patterns in the absence of other information.
An ongoing and open question about swag is how we can use it to further our goals and not just as a way of giving away items with no known return. The general thinking I've heard from others is that things like stickers are great give-aways and basically are branding. Other items, when used with a plan, can be good for converting users and contributors. If we are wanting to do swag for our existing contributors, we should probably do special items for them as many of them have our stickers and other items.
As an example, there is an open request for a few non-stickers to use with a quiz at a release party. We are trying to figure out how to fulfill that request now.
regards,
bex

Hi Germano,
Did you file a ticket in the Mindshare repo to request any swag?
There are other tickets for release parties in Poland and Serbia that requested and are receiving swag this week. For example:
https://pagure.io/mindshare/issue/53
It is true there is no more swag in the Brno office, but until it is replenished, shipments are currently arranged from the Red Hat Raleigh headquarters.
