I communicated with all but one of our core reviewers (Martin Andre) who<br>
is moving countries ATM and the core reviewer team are +1 on the mission<br>
statement change. I’m not sure when Martin gets settled, and I don’t want<br>
to block. Knowing Martin, he wouldn’t have a strong opinion on the matter.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>More precisely, I'm taking time off between jobs, with intermittent access to the internet :)<br><br></div><div>To get back to the point, I have no objection to simplify the mission statement as suggested by Doug, and I'm glad to see Kolla on its way to join the big tent.<br><br></div><div>Regards,<br></div><div>Martin<br></div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
