Recognition for good deeds is a key motivator for many people contributing to open source projects. We use platforms like the Credits list in the products, Friends of the Tree in our regular status reports, invitation to summits, and other tools for making sure that people contributing to Mozilla feel like their contributions are recognized. One of the simplest and easiest forms of recognition is Mozilla swag and we should be doing more to give t-shirts and other swag to contributors doing good deeds -- especially new-ish contributors. T-shirts and other Mozilla swag serve as "badges" that signify membership in the Mozilla project and so everyone actively participating in meaningful ways should get something that says "I'm a member of the team" and a Mozilla t-shirt serves that purpose quite well.
