Black shirts rule. And I want to suggest to produce real XXXXXL
shirts. In 2004 I got a white XXL shirt from Peter Eisentraut, which
didn't fit my athletic, Bud-Spencer-like body ;-)

One should keep in mind that such a T-Shirt uniform might not fit all
events. More commercial ones might require a more formal dress, like
polo shirts or a classical suit. At the LinuxTag in Berlin were
neckties with a BSD-daemon[1] sold.

Maybe we should organize the production of a necktie with an elephant
logo?
