Ok, it turns out Ian 'has heard' of Oolite already: at the moment he's somewhere in galaxy 7 helping out the assassin's guild and having a jolly good time with it.
As far as badges go: he rightly pointed out that selling Elite badges would infringe on Frontier Developments' copyright / trademark.
However, all is not lost: he's pretty much available if we want bages with our very own design - hmm, time to have another look at the icon competition:

The second from the left!
& yep: I meant I might well be purchasing 25 pounds sterling's worth of Oolite badges, once we've decided what the new Oolite icon is going to look like!
