Open Stack

I like to revise this Mission Statement as is doesn't talk about improving quality?
+1 Jay...

Suggestion:

Define and uphold the high quality standards for developing and executing tests in a Continuous Integration release cycles of Openstack and improving the test automation toolsets.

Maybe I'm being too pedantic, but the statement above is focused entirely on the development and maintenance of tools and says nothing about the execution of these tools, thus implying another group will take that responsibility.  I do not believe that to be the case :-)  

"Develop, maintain, and initiate tools and plans to ensure the upstream stability and quality of OpenStack, and its release readiness at any point during the cycle."
