jargon, not a mission!

So, I don't really agree with either of those points. Nova, at its core, deals with virtual machines, while Heat deals with abstract representations of resources. Talking about models in the Heat mission statement seems about as out of place as talking about VMs would be in the Nova one. And "model" is not a term we use anywhere internally. It's not intended to be internal jargon (which would be one level of abstraction below Heat-the-service), it's intended to be at one level of abstraction _above_ Heat-the-service.

That said...

"Create a human and machine accessible service for managing the entire
lifecycle of infrastructure and applications within OpenStack clouds."

Sounds good enough.
