Voting is needed to fund purchasing another batch of Inkscape stickers. These are the high quality waterproof metallic vinyl stickers that we've used (to high demand) for hackfests, but featuring the generic Inkscape theme. Stickers have proven to be a popular way to promote Inkscape at public events, and we've run completely out of the 1,000 we purchased last time.
Proposal:
1. Authorize reimbursement to Marc Jeanmougin for the printing of Inkscape stickers.
- [ ] a. Yes, authorize reimbursement of up to $1250 for 10,000 stickers. - [ ] b. Yes, authorize reimbursement of up to $220 for 1,000 stickers. - [ ] c. Yes, authorize reimbursement of up to $A for $B stickers. - [ ] d. No, do not authorize reimbursement for printing stickers.

Background ----------
Due to high demand, we discussed at the October board meeting purchasing 10,000 Inkscape stickers at once. By doing so we can get them quite cheaply. CR reports he can get high quality stickers at the following rates:
* 1000 stickers for 150 pounds ($192) * 10,000 stickers for 900 pounds ($1156)
Mc will be purchasing this batch, using Cr's design and purchasing guidance. The stickers will then be distributed at various Inkscape events over the coming year.
(Several board members have already approved this, but on a defunct mailing list, so we're re-requesting votes on the official list for proper archiving.)
