This is a call for discussion to form such a statement and add the mission to near the top of the I18N wiki page.

I put out "The Mission of the Fedora i18n Project is to ensure we have the best possible international language OS support in Fedora".
Pravin pointed out last week that we need to consider Vision vs Mission statements: roughly Vision is long term goal (end point) and Mission is how we get there.
Ankit posted "Enabling Fedora to speak your language".

Comment (by petersen):
It seems we should develop the Vision Statement first and then consider the Mission.
A couple of ideas for the Vision:
"All Fedora users can effortlessly read and write their languages" (feels a little narrow)
"Users can use Fedora in their own languages effortlessly and effectively."
