I would be interesting to see someone put together a history of "commons" 
around the world in light of the modern libre and commons "movements"...

One thing I think I have picked up though is that not every member of the 
public was a member of the commons... (Better language?)

So, you could possibly put together a "commons club" where the people in the 
club had commons rights to the works and the people on the outside didn't.. 
and still be a commons in some historical contexts... Yes? No?
