Maybe something along the lines of :
In order to achieve a coherent architecture between xml.apache.org components and other components and applications, standards (formal or de facto) will be used as much as possible for both protocols and APIs. Where appropriate, experiences and lessons learnt will be fed back to standards bodies in an effort to assist in the development of those standards. We will also allow the innovation of new protocols, APIs
^^^^^ encourage?
and components in order to seed new concepts not yet defined by standards.
I like the general thought here. Does anyone else have an opinion on this?
