 In order to move Graphene and the GraphQL Python ecosystem forward I realized is essential to be clear with the community on next steps, so we can move uniformly.
 
-There are few key points that need to happen in the short/mid term, divided into two main sections:
-
-- [Community](#community)
-- [Graphene 3](#graphene-3)
