With us having marketing broken down into regions, or languages, I think it
would be easier for each language group or marketing area to do there own
thing.  Just like there are places in the US that make the items and handle
shipping and everything else for you, I am sure there is in other countries
as well.  It would be really confusing I think to attempt a global store.

I also am not sure what selling stuff under TDF would do for the non-profit
aspect of the foundation.

What I see is the US/CAN marketing teams setting up a place and then
directing people to that site when they are out promoting LibreOffice.  Then
all the money that is generated from their store could go towards more
Marketing in the area.  I think seperating the funds like that would work
just fine.

I am going to end here for now, as I feel like I am rambling.
