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.

The whole point of the strategy discussion is to help better elaborate "who we are"... I think the shortened versions here look pretty good and we should look at polishing it up rather than "coming up with a new one". I kind of hate the "we are the best" mantra, because everyone wants to say they are the best. I'd rather replace it with something more concrete like "we are the most flexible" or "we offer the most choices" or "we create with you in mind" or something to that effect that gives the reader something more concrete to relate to. If they just read "best", they'll say Why is this best compared to the other guy that says "best"?
