[Red5] Long term project goals.

[John Grden]

This is right on Luke! Yes, a mission statement/goal statement is something
we need to have posted as well as for our own direction obviously.

What I'll do is, copy what you have here, and put into the wiki AND word doc
that we can edit that'll be in the docs directory of the repository so that
we can flush it out to a final rev. Cool?
