[Seaside-dev] What is our Mission Statement?

[Sebastian Sastre]

I know I'm annoying but this is healty for the brand so.. here I go again:
To be honest I don't found right to put focus on negative.
I mean, it's okay to get rid of the pain of web development but if you consider
Seaside as a purple cow, fousing on "getting rid of the pain" may not express
quite right its value.
I'm questioning about "get rid of the pain" is still thinking small given the
supoerpowers that seaside provides.
So following the line of thought, why you want to get rid of that pain? 
to be suffering less..
If happy programers makes better software, when you'll be paying attention to
happines if your goal is just stopping pain?
I say that, with seaside, you can aim higher than stop pain.
In retrospective, of course is great to have that solved. Actually is great and
many many thanks to Avi for creating and dev-team for evoluting it all as open
source. But for our future I think there is more sense in having a declared
possitive goal don't you think?
