| # OpenInfra Labs Vision and Mission | ||
|
|
||
| This page is to help you understand the ovearching purpose (vision) of the OpenInfra Labs,, and how we're bringing about that vision, which is our mission. |

Also: Purpose and vision are distinctly different.
Purpose is why you exist, which generally is mission related.
Vision is what you see as the result of your work down the road. If you can think of an obtainable, but slightly scary/uncomfortable end result of success, then that might be considered a good vision if others can use it to help drive alignment.

| In support of the [Four Opens](https://openinfra.dev/four-opens/), OpenInfra Labs vision is the creation and sustainability of all-Open Infrastructure from myriad all-Open tools, platforms, and methods. | ||
| This Open Infrastructure enables the practice of Open Source software development and other [Open Work](https://fossrit.github.io/open-work-definition/) collaborations. | ||

I think we might want to flip the mission/vision content itself. At least this seems very much of a mission statement.
"We see a future where Open Infrastructure is the foundation technology. Where the four opens resulted in x, y, z."
| In fulfilling the OpenInfra Labs vision, Laboratory projects work to define key concepts for establishing current and future Open Infrastructures. | ||
| These concepts include, but are not limited to, Open Cloud, Operate First, Open Data, Open Telemetry, Open Site/System Reliability Engineering (SRE), and so forth. | ||
|
|
||
| OpenInfra Labs projects then begin developing code and content around the concepts. |

It seems like more than just key concepts.
"Open Infra Labs exists as a collaborative space where a, b, c"?
| OpenInfra Labs projects then begin developing code and content around the concepts. | ||
| Projects work with a cloud-native development approach of discrete components that fit into all-Open Clouds. | ||

I think this is good to call out, s/(?)//
