[lca2018-chat] Font used to render badge?

[Shaun Walker]

Pity, I quite liked the ones from last year, so many great approaches to
visualing things on badges, but certainly understand the cost of colour vs
black ink!


Cheers,
Shaun

That's a really good question, I'm open to suggestions. Hoping to have this
nailed down next weekend.

Even if it does render, the printing is going to be black-and-white, so the
flag isn't going to be particularly noticeably Australian anyway.

For now, https://rego.linux.conf.au/tickets/mybadge.png probably gives you
the best idea about what would come out of we printed it today, but I hope
to improve that if I can figure out how to improve the rendering.

Suggestions (and patches) welcome.
