 Please consider our goals in mind:
 
-       Accessibility, Compatibility, Performance
+       Decentralization, Accessibility, Compatibility, Performance
 
 These goals apply to everyone: users viewing over the web or NNTP,
 sysadmins running public-inbox, and other hackers working public-inbox.
 
+We will reject any feature which advocates or contributes to a particular
+instance of a public-inbox becoming a single point of failure.
