It's a community at the end of the day, and having conflict like that is actually good. We should have people with different use cases and problem sets sitting in the same room sharing ideas. That's how we can improve as developers.

No argument there from me. I’m just not sure it’s possible to have a single manifesto you can promote in that environment, because the goal of the manifesto is essentially to represent a consensus that can’t exist. What you wind up with is the least common denominator, but the most interesting and useful discussions are usually in precisely the areas where there are reasonable differences of opinion or priorities and therefore significant decisions to be made.
