I think this is a good idea, provided there are people we can count on
to keep our goals and principles visible freqiently on the ilst.
Without people to do that, and explain how they affect our decisions,
there is a danger that the list will fill up with people who don't
value our principles and goals, perhaps because they don't know about
them, and who will try to make decisions about what we should do based
the goals and non-principles most people have about software.
We can't ask the Emacs maintainers to do this, because they are
already busy and we can't load then further.
Can you find three people willing to make the commitment?
