Yesterday Gargron helped me get his take on the project, so that I can write a mission statement. But, I would also love to hear your take, so I can combine the two into our collective statement.

This is me trying to be more transparent with the process.

Feel free to help me answer these questions:
1. What does Mastodon mean to you?
2. Where do you want to see the project go?
3. How do you talk about Mastodon with your friends?

1. A decentralized social networking platform free of corporate control, which does not mean laissez faire, but rather that individual instances are free to develop their own cultures and norms.

2. Develop a stable API, and support strong protocol standards, enabling and empowering alternate implementations and front-ends. Continued support for software freedom.

3. Software freedom and decentralization, but also complications of federation.
