→Gear: updated text to indicate that swag should be considered in a way similar to a badge system
==Gear==
Recommendation: Swag is special and The issuing of swag should be considered in a manner similar to process of used to develop a badge system. In short that means teams should work to define the process or steps required to "earn" different levels of sending swag out . Regular team review of community contribution will help to contributors shouldn't be automated the same way ensure that swag (as well as badges ) are issuedfulfilling the desired function and supporting the desired recognition. We recommend creating opportunities for your team to regularly consider who you would like to recognize by sending a shirt, mug, etc. These regular reminders could be done by:
* Add an agenda item to regular team meetings asking for nominations for volunteers who have made important contributions recently. Make sure to include link to the [[GearStore]] wiki page so people know where to go to get delivery scheduled.
* Create a regularly recurring contributor spotlight, such as the [https://reps.mozilla.org/featured/ Reps of the month program]
* Thought: This may require developing a sort of swag pyramid that indicates levels of expertise or commitment required to earn different levels of swag. Or not, because this may make the system too rigid.
