Yeah, in my original rings proposal, I had something called Fedora
Commons to represent this. Turns out that name is probably not the
best choice, as it is used by the _other_ Fedora, the digital archiving
system, so maybe "Fedora Collection" or something. Stephen's proposal
doesn't have anything like that. I agree it's a good idea, but on the
other hand I don't want to hold off experimenting with ideas until we
have an absolutely perfect plan.
