Hi.

The Mission Statement of the GCC project recently changed without any
announcement.

I am not a contributor to GCC, merely a user.
However, I'd like to understand more, especially about the
transparency of the project.

The GCC Steering Committee is supposed to follow the mission statement
as a guide for its decision.

Who changes the mission statement, and for what reason?
How can a modification of the statement be guided by the mission statement?
How were users and contributors informed of this?

Thank you in advance for your response.
Best regards.

For reference:
- The GCC homepage states the SC is "guided by the mission statement":

- The mission statement before the update:
