[ESP] GO-ESSP Draft Mission Statement.

[Jonathan Callahan]

All,

I'm in agreement with Bryan and Balaji.

Having missed the Princeton meeting and avoided the recent email 
discussions I'd like to take a moment to congratulate the group on 
coming to consensus on the trinity of acronym--logo--mission statement.  
Reaching consensus on such fundamental and personal taste driven items 
can be difficult and the results often show it.  The fact that I am very 
satisfied with the results without having participated speaks well of 
the commonly held vision.  Kudos to all who made it happen.

I look forward to more active participation on my part as we move into 
the nitty gritty of software interoperability now that we appear to have 
vision statement interoperability under wraps.

Cheers to all,


-- Jon
