[Foundation-l] Advertising suggestion

Are there long range projections of any sort, or a long term plan that lays
out
goals over 5 or 10 or 15 years? That sort of planning is how you decide what
you
need and whether you need to be doing more or different - without it, its
hard to
say if you are aimed in a particular direction and impossible to see how
close
you are getting to achieving your goals.
