I'm not sure what the purpose of this was, really, but for a mission statement it's very wordy. It's a single long sentence that tries to cram a lot of unrelated and technical things together.
Perhaps "mission statement" was a misnomer. A mission statement should be short and to the point (I'd say half this length, at most). If it wouldn't be readable on a single PowerPoint slide from the back of the room, it's probably trying to cover too much. It should cover the spiritual goals of the project, not necessarily the technical ones. Technical requirements change and fade in and out of importance; the community-driven nature is the key point. But like I said, I'm not sure what the purpose of this was. I'm also not big on mission statements in general, they tend to come off pointless and corny to me, so that's just my 2 cents worth.
