The Forgejo initiative has publicly declared interest in develops a software forge with accessibility concerns, among other features. Under this premise I propose to add Accessibility as a core value of the initiative: *All Forgejo developments will be made considering the ability to access of people with disabilities or functional impairment as a condition of equality of opportunities and inclusion, understanding Accessibility as the quality of being able to access with assistive technology.* Please feel free to comment, improve, suggest, object or approve this proposal taking into account your own concerns or level of agreement.

Vision
Vision is a deep, fundamental orientation, direction and meaning, a source of inspirational energy to act, that guides our work. Hints for deriving our vision:
- What is the world we are striving for?
- If there was a magic wand and everything was possible, what would we most deeply want for ourselves, for those we love, for the community, for society, for the world?
- Be receptive, be open to our intuition, follow our curiosity
From our vision, we derive our purpose and values.

Purpose
Purpose is the piece of the vision that is ours to do; that is an expression of our innate gifts and is within our capacity to take on. Purpose is the "action" part of moving towards the vision, a verb. Hints for deriving our purpose:
- What piece of the vision are we called to take on?
- Why do we do what we do?
- What ignites our heart and is within our capacity?
- Whom are we serving?
From our purpose, we derive our mission(s).

Mission
Mission is the overall kinds of action taken to bridge the gap between the current reality and the vision; anchoring our purpose into action and tangibly moving us towards vision. Mission is what's within our capacity to do that moves us towards the purpose. Hints for deriving our mission:
- What are the concrete things we do that actively mobilize towards our purpose?
- Given our strengths, limitations, resources and situation, where does it make sense to focus energy in terms of what will be a step in the direction of realizing the purpose?
- Finding the highest level of action that realizes purpose and acts as an umbrella to organize the finer elements
From our mission(s), we derive our roadmap.

Values
Values are qualities of our vision for Forgejo, which allow us to anchor the vision into reality by practicing them within our work on Forgejo. From these values we can derive specific practical agreements.
Please gather the Forgejo team's approval, and discuss as needed, before
adding or editing values. See DECISION-MAKING.md for
