Change Mission Statement #772

Open karianna opened 5 years ago

Some wording to indicate that we are Infrastructure as Code for other 3rd parties and that we should always make sure to be open for extension.

I'll copy in here what I said in slack on this topic :-)

"I would be nervous about doing that until we've finalised the docs on how to run it. I don't want another of these: https://github.com/AdoptOpenJDK/openjdk-infrastructure/issues/626 - it's fairly safe now (if you skip a couple of tags) and the Vagrant files are in place to make it easier to deploy in VMs but the docs aren't fully up to date and I think it still tries to change the hostname on the machine."

Once the docs are happy, and safeguards are in place, and a few people have tested them I'd be totally happy with such a change and it's definitely where we'd like to be :-)

The documentation around Vagrant (and PBTests) has been greatly worked on since the latest comment. I believe (from my look at the wikipedia article) that we are 'infrastructure as code', so I don't think it's unreasonable to put it in the docs now :-)
