Hello friends, maybe we could start writing some requirements on a doc, describe what we are thinking of, what we would like, as a project description? And use this to gather developers and attract...

The logic underlying NORA may be useful in creating interoperability between maps. Those maps which primarily address needs would fall under the Needs aspect of NORA. For example, maps of food security...

Hi Wolfgang: Now I understand what NORA means, cool! This makes me think, maybe there should be a glossary of key terms on the front page of commonsabundance.net? There’s a link to the “NORA Knowledge...

Joe, we do have a glossary in the about section: http://commonsabundance.net/glossary/ We could add something on NORA there. And refer to the glossary on the NORA introduction pages and other important...

It’s good to hear feedback about what people see or don’t see on the site, Joe! As Helene said, making NORA more visible on the homepage is one of the things we’ve talked about but not done yet – we’re...

@wolfgang-hoeschele – I think it could be easiest to connect to Christopher Alexander’s more recent idea of “centres” and from there to the notion of “pattern”. The “centre” idea came up in today’s...

I completely jazzed about tapping NORA for map interoperability. I finally took the time to have a long look at the NORA content. There’s a lot here already but now I’m beginning to see its tremendous...

Hi Ellen, just to clarify questions on NORA tags: they do work now… But they are displayed after the recent activity and the whole list of tags… So if you scroll down and down and down… you may find...

Hi Ellen, Regarding sitemap – there is no sitemap that gets automatically updated, but there are three pages with siteplans that give a sense of the direction we want to take (i.e., that include...

Thanks for the links and the navigation tips, Helene and Wolfgang. I’ll ask Megan this week and see if she’s able to help fix the tags at the bottom of the page. If so, I’ll put her in touch with you....

The Stefan Meretz classification is interesting – he lays out various issues very clearly. On reading this piece, I’d say that his “Resource” and “Constitution” aspects relate to aspects of “Resources”...

Looks interesting. The test is always in use, and I suppose it's already been used to some extent? Question on column AQ: "Prs/cons compared to public-public realm" – I suppose one of those "publics"...

Yes, Pablo de Soto is using his version to map the commons of Rio. I'm working on cataloguing some commons as well – but it's not ready for viewing. Good catch! Yes, one is supposed to be public....
