The GCC Mission Statement says nothing about conforming to international standards!?

I guess I could have worded my email a bit better. Of course I don't
assume that the GCC developers are ignoring standards. Nor do I think
any of us are unaware of GCC's ability to support a standard and have
extensions to it that go beyond the standard. So I simply want to
suggest to the proper people (who hopefully are reading this ;) that
perhaps the mission statement should include something about the GCC
project efforts to encompass programming language standards and then
go beyond them whenever necessary in order to make the compiler even
more useful.
