I'm sure if there is enough demand, then the NetBSD Project can
determine a viable, permanent solution to making these available.  If we
can't find a way to do this regularly (or on demand, say, if we receive
N orders, we print them and ship them), then I'd certainly be happy to
now take one-time orders and print the appropriate amount of extra
copies before the expo.

Similarly, any extra copies not sold at the expo will then be available
on a first-come-first-serve basis, I guess.

Of course, all of the above with the disclaimer:  I have never done any
online vending... ;-)

All profits of all merchandise we'll sell at the booth at the Expo's
usually goes directly to The NetBSD Foundation.
