I think you are on to something here Jeff. The establishment (and mutual
use of) a commons certainly requires shared understandings, and the
implicit honoring of basic agreements.
In the USA, for example, there is a "commons of expression" which is
established and then managed via one, simple, elegant rule called "The
1st Amendment." When this simple rule is not honored, or is ignored, we
get a reduction in the diversity and volume of expression-flow.
When this happens, the best ideas never see the light of day. Something
about "closed space."
Are "closed minds" and "closed space" correlated? Does one beget the
other? What does it mean to censor expression in an open space?
What is the relationship between " liberté " and open space?

* Individual rights (aka "Law of 2 Feet")

Interestingly, the words liberal and liberty share the same exact

/In light of the foregoing, we may reasonably and safely conclude,
Open Space has absolutely nothing in common and nothing to do with
with libertarian ideas.
Right?/
