Hi,

Thank you @Douglas for sharing your comment and proposal on the project's forming new mission statement!


We covered this topic and activity at the PTG only briefly, as we were running out of time.

To continue the conversation, I would like re-surface the etherpad we created to capture comments and feedback: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/starlingx-mission-statement

We currently have 3 mission statement candidates for the StarlingX project. It is very important for the community to think through and agree on the mission that we are working towards!

- You can add comments and feedback to the etherpad.
- You can vote on the current proposals by adding ‘+1’ next to the one that you like the most.
- You can also add a new proposal, if you formulated one that you feel explains the project’s mission better than the proposals we have already.

We can continue the discussion on this mail thread and on the etherpad. The Community call is also a great place to discuss feedback and views with regards to the project’s overall mission and mission statement options.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks and Best Regards,
Ildikó
