Re: Group Goals

Peter, Robin, all,

I’ve just created an initial draft on the GitHub repo

https://github.com/w3c/scholarly-html/blob/gh-pages/goals.md <https://github.com/w3c/scholarly-html/blob/gh-pages/goals.md>

providing a list with goals listed in the various discussion.

Have a nice day :-)
