I would strongly be in favor of including also those social aspects in
this document. At least for community networks those are very
important aspects and it is really hard to explain why they exist
without at least touching them and pointing to them. We do not have to
go into details, but saying that there is more to it than just
satisfying some goals or needs is I think very important.

It is similar to trying to explain Wikipedia. Just saying that people
are contributing to it because they want an encyclopedia would not
explain to the reader really why Wikipedia exists and why it is like
it is.
