[talk-au] Present for keen OSMer

[Ben Johnson]

Great question... and timely, given I recently bought myself a few  
goodies from http://shop.kernelconcepts.de/index.php?cPath=22_37

I purchased one of each - the vest (note - the back of this particular  
vest is in German "VERMESSUNG"), the mug, and the pin. The order  
arrived quickly (less than 2 weeks)... When ordering, I did have a  
small issue with their online ordering system - so after placing your  
order you might need to email them and confirm the total with  
shipping... because there seemed to be a problem with the shipping to  
Australia... It was sorted out by email no problems, and you can just  
PayPal them the money.

Also purchased the book: "OpenStreetMap: Using and Enhancing the Free  
Map of the World", written by Frederik Ramm and Jochen Topf - there is  
an abundance of these (and other OSM books) on eBay... it's best if  
you also search worldwide sellers on eBay because you can generally  
get them cheaper from overseas (especially from the UK).

It irritates me the OSMF doesn't have a shop that sells merchandise.  
If marketed properly, it can be another means of financial support for  
the project.
