Regarding mission, I just stumbled upon this:
The openSUSE project is a worldwide effort that promotes the use of Linux everywhere. openSUSE creates one of the world's best Linux distributions, working together in an open, transparent and friendly manner as part of the worldwide Free and Open Source Software community.
Which is a shortened version of the "We are" paragraph from the guiding principles. The guiding principles already contain all the mission statements we need i think. I fail to see why we need something else.
Ok. So building on that, taking a few comments from this thread: The openSUSE project is a worldwide effort that promotes the use of Linux everywhere. openSUSE maintains and develops a packaging and distribution infrastructure on which it creates one of the world's most flexible and powerful Linux distributions, working together in an open, transparent and friendly manner as part of the worldwide Free and Open Source Software community. - we're international - we promote linux EVERYWHERE - we build infrastructure - we have created a very flexible and powerful linux distro (a powertool that might be a bit heavy on Aunt Tilly, but she can ask Uncle Tom for help if there are issues) - we work together in an open, transparant etc etc etc way The change is actually very minor, I think most is covered with this and we don't deviate much from what we have. Should be quite acceptable. And for who wants to read more, we have the rest of the strategy which I'll be updating now. Cheers, Jos
