This is getting rolled into a brief summary of the Core Product and priorities established as a result of the first Gittip retreat, as sort of sequel to @whit537 's post last year-- Gittip is Hiring. Will post draft here for feedback soonly.

If you have notes, comments or stories from the retreat, post them over in #1843, pretty please.

@heidigardner Over on http://www.opencompany.biz/ we're planning to use Google Docs for collaborative writing / editing, w/ copy/paste to another system (Tumblr in our case) to publish. Want to give that a whirl here? If so go ahead and kick off a Google Doc and paste the share link here, eh?

[heidigardner]

Okay.
I am writing now, so expect it to be a mess for a bit. There will be obvious gaps people can fill in if they please. Or just make additions and we will piece it together to flow.

I changed the title from "Mission Statement" to indicate that the scope of this has changed.

Great. Thanks @whit537

[heidigardner]

Perfect. I am back online. Had to duck out for a week when the first full week of taxes overlapped with the first week of tax season.
@whit537 I stopped at the . . . with the discussion of mission. How much more detail and wrap up info do you want to include. Let me know or add some things and I will get this finished up timely like.
Also, you may know more people's names in the photo. :) Thanks. I will check back in tomorrow!

Here were my notes: The first page should look identical to the wiki (and then it was killed? #1891)

The second page was a collection of complete phrases I caught from the conversation on Saturday.
