This commons is built around a [[distributed knowledge graph]] assembled from off-the-shelf components, supporting emergent conventions and respecting user choice and data sovereignty. 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 online and offline -- if not by name, definitely in spirit.
