### Streams
3636

37-
The streams working group's purpose is to improve the existing Stream
38-
implementation, in accordance with the communities needs and feedback.
39-
40-
Its responsibilities are:
41-
* Produce a living `Stream` standard.
42-
* Create a reference implementation as `readable-stream`.
43-
* Recommend versions of `readable-stream` to be included in `io.js`
44-
* Collaborate with the WHATWG Stream standard to ensure an optimal level
45-
of compatibility between the two standards.
37+
The Streams WG is dedicated to the support and improvement of the Streams API
38+
as used in io.js and the npm ecosystem. We seek to create a composable API that
39+
solves the problem of representing multiple occurrences of an event over time
40+
in a humane, low-overhead fashion. Improvements to the API will be driven by
41+
the needs of the ecosystem; interoperability and backwards compatibility with
42+
other solutions and prior versions are paramount in importance. Our
43+
responsibilities include:
44+
45+
* Addressing stream issues on the io.js issue tracker.
46+
* Authoring and editing stream documentation within the io.js project.
47+
* Reviewing changes to stream subclasses within the io.js project.
48+
* Redirecting changes to streams from the io.js project to this project.
49+
* Assisting in the implementation of stream providers within io.js.
50+
* Recommending versions of readable-stream to be included in io.js.
51+
* Messaging about the future of streams to give the community advance notice of changes.
