i agree with you, that the current version of this description isn't
optimal. I think we just copied it from a previous version. Feel free
to write a new text and add it to the site. Not sure if a diagram
makes sense at this place, this could make the site a bit unclear.

This is not exactly correct. We took the mission statement from the old
page, but it has been reviewed/modified by the PMC before we have added
it to the site in February 2007. I remember that we had a discussion
about whether it still holds true, and in the end we agreed.
I would prefer not to simply create a new stetment and directly put it
on the live site, but to create a proposal, and discuss it. A wiki page
in the sandbox would be a good place for that, because we can add
comments there, change it etc. No single developer should be able to
modify the mission statement without consent.
I agree with the both of you, that the current version needs a
refreshment. A picture as an architectural overview for ApacheDS would
be nice, I like this one btw.

but it is also a little bit outdated according to some developers.
