“It was always the Camel.”

What started as a useful metaphor has become part of DNS lore — now captured in a limited edition design just in time for #OARC46.

Look closely… you might spot something in the water.

This is a time-limited release (≈3 months). Order soon if you’d like it in time for OARC 46.

Proceeds support DNS-OARC’s workshops and community initiatives.

But also—DNS magic is real.
We’ve opened up a limited number of additional seats for OARC 46 while keeping the experience you expect from an OARC workshop.
They’re live now. When they’re gone, they’re really gone.
