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.

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. :)
