Hi. The Mission Statement of the GCC project recently changed without any announcement.
I am not a contributor to GCC, merely a user. However, I'd like to understand more, especially about the transparency of the project. The GCC Steering Committee is supposed to follow the mission statement as a guide for its decision. Who changes the mission statement, and for what reason? How can a modification of the statement be guided by the mission statement? How were users and contributors informed of this? Thank you in advance for your response. Best regards. For reference: - The GCC homepage states the SC is "guided by the mission statement": https://gcc.gnu.org/ - The mission statement before the update: https://web.archive.org/web/20210331192925/https://gcc.gnu.org/gccmission.html
