The Fedora Project's mission is to lead the advancement of free and open source software and content as a collaborative community.
I think I like their mission and it's also pretty correct - so we brainstormed on what would fit openSUSE. Suggestions are very welcome, we currently have:
The openSUSE project's mission is to unlock the posibilities of computers to users around the globe using the power and flexibility of Linux.
but it's far from perfect. Somehow it should mention we focus on flexibility and power ("make things as simple as possible but no simpler"), it should be ambitious (eg worldwide blabla), focussed on end-users etc - the requirements are clear as they come from the rest of the strategy discusion. But now, how to phrase it in one sentence?
/me bangs his head against the wall again
How about
The openSUSE project's mission is to unlock the possibilities of computers to all users around the globe using the power and flexibility of Linux and other Community driven and supported Open Source Software.
