What policy?

I think our primary goal is to reach OpenStep compliant, stable system.
Improvements that doesn't fit well to OpenStep and NeXT UI should be
not _ignored_ but _delayed_ for now. If we'll spend time to add features
like horizontal menu, we never reach good shape.
Anyway we obviously need policy that helps bring our mission statement to
a life.
"... superior development environment based on and inspired by the
OpenStep standard developed by NeXT Computer Inc. (now Apple Computer
Inc.) and the OPENSTEP implementation of this standard."
