### Meaningful
13+
14+
The reports generated by this project (and the data fetched and processed to
15+
support it) seeks to be meaningful. We hope this project will provide data and
16+
analysis that helps inform discussions about the commons--the collection of
17+
works that are openly licensed or in the public domain.
18+
19+
The goal of this project is to help answer questions like:
20+
- How has the world's use of the commons changed over time?
21+
- How is the knowledge and culture of the commons distributed?
22+
- Who has access (and how much) to the commons?
23+
- What significant trends can be observed in the commons?
24+
- Which public domain dedication or licenses are the most popular?
25+
- What are the correlations between public domain dedication or licenses and
26+
region, language, domain/endeavor, etc.?
