Open-Source Telecom T-shirts / Реклама open-source telecom

(English text is below)

Есть идея сделать футболки в картинками и высказываниями с рекламой open-source telecommunication. И в связи с этим – вопрос к вам, чтобы вам хотелось увидеть на такой футболке? Пишите в комментариях свои любимые высказывания, ссылки на xkcd и всё остальное, что можно напечатать на футболке. Желательно, чтобы оно было под open-source лицензией, например Creative Common, или в Public Domain.  :)

Мы будем рассылать бесплатные футболки вместе с первыми 10-20 экземплярами UmTRX. А после этого они будут доступны в нашем интернет-магазине и м.б. в магазинах наших друзей и партнёров.

Если ваше предложение попадёт на футболку, вы тоже получите такую футболку бесплатно.

Примеры ниже, под английским текстом.

We want to make T-shirts promoting open-source in telecommunications, and we need your ideas. What would you want to see on such a T-shirt? Please, post here your favorite sayings, phrases, xkcd comics and everything else which is related to open-source telecommunications and could be printed on a T-shirt. We would prefer if those things are under an open-source license, like Creative Commons, or in Public Domain. :)

We plan to give them for free to the first 10-20 UmTRX buyers. Then you’ll be able to buy them from our web-shop or from one of our friends and distributors.

If you proposal gets printed, you’ll get a free T-shirt as well.

PS If you know a good online T-shirt printing service in US or Europe – drop me a line. I’ve never done this in US/Europe before.

Examples:

  • “There is no way to open-source. Open-source is the way” *
    * Mahatma Gandhi saying, modified in the spirit of open-source
  • Control your telecom infrastructure – use open-source!

    I see some traditional Linux penguin in black&white T-shirt on which there is big size phrase LETS OPEN TELECOM.

      Well, penguin Tux is a specific Linux thing and it has too narrow meaning to me. A picture of a screwdriver may be better. :)

          Good idea.
          An image of a thin flimsy door with many locks and label “That’s how telecom looks today”

            Maybe, it’s interesting!
            RJxx is just a very recognizable telecom symbol, even as a silhouette.

    Some ideas:

    * “Break the Carrier Lock”
    * “Telecom wants to be free”
    * “Proprietary != Secure”
    * “There is no such thing as a spectrum crisis.”
    * “Run your own cellular network.”

    Should give shirts away at OpenBTS Conf as well. ;)

      Hey Anders!

      I knew I could count on you.

      All proposals are outstanding. Now I have hard time choosing! :)

      Yes, we’ll bring them to the OpenBTS conf, that’s for sure.

        After people finish suggestions, let’s post a survey and vote. Personally, I like “Build your own cellular network.” best – even people outside the industry know what that means.

    Alexander,

    For MY T-Shirt, I would like this on the front:

    “Открытое ПО” in Russian.

    And on the back of the Shirt, I it to read ( EITHER):

    справедливаяволны.ru

    or

    http://www.Fairwaves.ru

    But whatever is printed on either the front/back/ or both sides, it HAS to make mention/credit the Fairwaves crew!

    Sincerely,

    SDRGuy

    sdrguy, these words «Открытое ПО» for Russians, those are outside the industry, say nothing (
