Well, this is pretty much what I'm proposing IMO. The Vision and Mission 
statements as we have them now are over-arching, and setting a strategic 
direction ofr a few years is a sub-goal for a limited timeframe which doesn't 
necessarily apply to all projects.

Honestly I don't have a real opinion on that... as long as there *is* a 
direction I'm happy.

I admit I like the privacy one though.
