When we wrote

I
anticipated that we'd have people asking to create official objectives
than we can handle. Instad, we have the other way around. In talking to
some people, I find that people find the concept a less
self-explanatory than I hoped it to be. I'd like to fix this. One quick
thing I'd like to do is change "Objective" to "Initiative", which
seems
to be more intuitively understood. There's more, but does anyone object
to me doing this as a first easy thing?
I don't object, but I don't understand the difference or why it matters. To me:
- objective: concrete thing you want to accomplish in a given timeframe
- initiative: set of related work items spread across multiple areas,
usually with a timeline much longer than an objective
Which did you originally envision Fedora having?
