This page lists the 41 project goals proposed for 2025h2.
Just because a goal is listed on this list does not mean the goal has been accepted.
The owner of the goal process makes the final decisions on which goals to include
and prepares an RFC to ask approval from the teams.
Flagship goals represent the goals expected to have the broadest overall impact.
