The C Standard charter [pdf]

As you probably already know, WG14 recently finalized work on C23 and began the cycle for a new revision of the C standard, for now called C2y. Traditionally, that means updating the charter, but this time around we decided to do things a little bit differently and instead of simple update to C23 charter [1], we tried a more substantial rewrite.

Initial version was uploaded on the website as document N3223 [2] and a "live" preview also is available [3].

The plan is to no longer keep charter tied to specific revision, but to have it apply to current and future standardizing efforts as a whole.

What do you think? Do you like it? Is something not clear enough? Did we miss something? We would like to hear your opinions and suggestions!

I think at "Keep the language small and simple" it should say avoid "two ways of doing something"

( The sample I have is 0, NULL and nullptr where nullptr is something new. Two ways of doing something makes the language complex. )
