We discussed the Vision Statement again on yesterday's meeting and
re-iterated it a bit. The last proposal was:
"Fedora is the preferred platform for software development and
deployment in any language or application stack."

We felt it is important that all WG members give their input and then
vote on it.

A few comments:
1) To me "deployment" means that we'll make it quick and painless for
developers to deploy their applications on Fedora, regardless of the
applications' specific language (stack) requirements. However, this does
not mean that we'll provide "production deployment" guarantees and
support.
2) Is the word "application stack" understood well enough by the PRD's
intended audience? Are there simpler alternatives?
3) When making changes to the Vision statement we should strive for
simplicity.
