Perhaps more usefully, this sort of question comes up often, along with
"shall we redesign the website", and there doesn't seem to be a
mechanism to reach a decision between us. Sit and chat? That's down to
who turns up and who has the most forceful personality on the night. I
just wonder, actually, whether there's anything in open source that
might help structure a decision making process like that. Might be
interesting if there is. Or might it be too complex?
Or does anyone know a good way of doing it? *
Or shall we just go:
1: everybody who's interested come up with a mission statement
2: we all get to vote by spreading, say, five points between the
candidate statements
3: we take the winner and see if there's anything in those that came
second and third we can use to make a super statement.
Then we see if we're happy with the outcome.

* collective, fair decision making processes that might work online is
one of my hobby horses
