Subject:   Purpose of DKR Project

Here's what I came up with (before looking at other suggestions):

We are building an "Open Hyperdoc System", an open-source framework for the distributed management and interconnection of documents (using the "large" definition of documents as a representation of any computer-represented media), under the guidance and following the vision of Doug Engelbart, incorporating where possible "modern" Internet standards and technologies.

I feel pretty strongly that Doug's name should appear in the "mission statement", and that the high-priority purpose of our group is follow his lead and vision, since he is the one who brought us together. Are we listening closely enough to Doug's experience and wishes?

Sincerely,

-- Adam
