-    Do <strong>not</strong> use programs such as autoconf/automake for configuration and

+In addition to these stated goals, we try our best to uphold the following

+</p>
+
+<ul>
+  <li>
+    Never break configuration files or existing workflows. Breaking changes

+  </li>
+  <li>
+    Keep mental complexity low: once you know i3’s key features, other features
+    should be easy to understand.

+  <li>
+    Only add features which benefit many people, instead of going to great
+    lengths to support rarely used workflows.
+  </li>
+  <li>
+    Only documented behavior is supported. Clear documentation is a requirement
