It does raise the bar to critiquing the document though, but perhaps that's 
also a feature.

Perhaps we can first discuss the purpose of the document? It seems to be a mix 
of mission statement for the project, as well as your own near term roadmap?  
Should we interpret it only as an advertisement of your own view of the 
problems the project faces, as a start to dialogue, or is the purpose to 
solicit feedback?

Would it be helpful to work towards a similar document the whole community 
endorses, with a shared mission statement, and a (perhaps loosely defined) 
shared roadmap?

I'd like to call out some specific things in the document that I am personally 
excited by: the project has long lacked a coherent, repeatable approach to 
performance testing and regressions; combined with easy visualisation tools 
this would be a huge win.  The FQL sampling with data distribution inference is 
also something that has been discussed privately elsewhere, and would be hugely 
advantageous to the former, so that we can discover representative workloads.

Thanks for taking the time to put this together, and start this dialogue.

    That's a feature, not a bug.

    Happy to chat here or on slack w/anyone. This is a complex topic so
    long-form or high bandwidth communication is a better fit than gdoc
    comments. They rapidly become unwieldy.
