Keep Aphrodite and all official components(projects created and maintained by the Aphrodite team) free software (tl;dr for the link: Free software is software where the users have control to do pretty much whatever they want with it; think of the "free" in "free software" as in "free speech," not as in "free snacks.")
Prevent something like what happened to GNU/Linux from happening to whatever the main software distribution ends up being.
Try to prevent memory safety bugs and other bugs that leak data from ever happening (using Rust helps with this).
Prevent relying on archaic behaviour, however support somewhat old computers.
NEVER charge money for any official component of Aphrodite.
Rebase, not merge. Merge commits clutter repos; rebasing doesn't.
