The Agora as described in this article is just [[an Agora]], meaning it is just one possible implementation of the principles delineated here. Because the Agora-defining [[Agora protocol]] tries to build on common principles[^commoning] and incorporate conventions already in use at the time of writing, you will likely find that other Agoras already exist -- if not by name, then in spirit.
