I'd say the objectives derive from an overall vision of a

to be added.
Should add a couple of caveats to that vision, which are also listed
on the objectives page. We want Red Hat Linux to be leading edge and
frequently updated, and it's intended to contain a broader variety of
software some of which may be niche or
not-yet-ready-for-wide-audience. So it does have some bias toward
users who want latest-and-greatest stuff and want to try out a range
of software (have more choices), even if not all the software is
"fully productized."
