The idea is to expand the possibilities on what we have so far in the Wikimedia Shop http://shop.wikimedia.org/
Is this approved by the WMF shop manager?
Humm... Do volunteer need permission to share ideas? Maybe I was not clear, but the idea is to create prototypes so that we can have more creative things. The next stages, like creating, sellilng and other bureacratic stuff, is for the next stage.
and other local groups shops using the global community ideas and help local groups to outreach Wikimedia projects.
Is this approved by WMF legal? Wikimedia Italia had to close its shop years ago.
Well, when people from WMF comes to Brazil with t-shirts, brochures, stickers etc., I think there is no need to ask any thing to WMF legal. Here we just receive these resources and share with volunteers on events and projects, helping to outreach Wikimedia projects. Since in Brazil there is no legal entity approved as a chapter, I was not even thinking about a local shop here, but just to focus on the creative side of volunteers and leave the (boring) bureaucratic stuff for bureaucrats. :)
