The KDE Project exists to create a good Free Software desktop environment. 
This can be subdivided into connected aims related to the product (involving 
such subjective terms as power, usability, accessibility, and so on) and the 
community (involving licensing, development and governance techniques).

Is that the sort of thing you're looking for? Either way, is this the 
appropriate place to discuss this? In fact, where is the appropriate place? 
I'm guessing people will say a list like kde-devel or kde-ev-membership...

Regards,
Tom
