Those goodies don't reach India.
Last year I was waiting for 3 whole months hoping it would reach.

I love coding, and I want to shout it loud. But this discouraged me so badly that...

I will try again. Fingers crossed.

Oh no :( Did your goodies ever arrive?

I hope it doesn't discourage you long term. Open source is pretty awesome. For me, the stickers, etc were a nice plus but not my main motivation. For me, being a part of something (and I had wanted to do more with git/Github anyway) was my main goal.
