Hey all,
I noticed that you took down the shop link on the wikipedia homepage - and your sales dropped dramatically as a result.
What I'd like to propose is either a thumbnail of a design line (or product) on the homepage, and/or a permanent "Shop" tab in the global navigation. Since it seems that raising money for Wikimedia Foundation is a priority, this is definitely a first step towards that end.
I'm leaving town tomorrow for the week, but my associate Samantha is in to help come up with ideas. We have a design team here and are happy to donate design for free, so if you guys want to re-organize the shop of have some product design ideas, feel free to tell us.
Cheers...

So, you foward this to the mailing list by mistake or you want our comments ? If you want comments, I will say something like "If we already have a link on the nav to the donations page, I think theres no problem with having one to the shop."
And by the way. What happen to that idea of a mouse pad with wikicode tips ? I liked the idea.
