+public-inbox spawned around the following ideas
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+* Public, non-real-time, archivable communication is essential to
+  Free and Open Source software development.
+
+* Contributing to Free and Open Source projects should not require the
+  use of non-Free/non-Open Source services or software.
+
+* Graphical user interfaces should not be required for text-based
+  communication.
+
+See http://public-inbox.org/design_notes.txt for our implementation notes.
