# Accountability guardrails
> [name=pospi] Todo: needs expanding, also narration on why these things are important
* **accountability** \(I answer to others\)
* \(for those using\)
* [Enable third-party critique](https://github.com/holo-rea/ecosystem/wiki/Modules-in-the-HoloREA-framework#links)
* \(for those building\)
* Governance of [shared language structures](https://github.com/holo-rea/ecosystem/wiki/Modules-in-the-HoloREA-framework#specification) for describing resources and processes
* What should [and should not be](https://cdw1.commonsengine.org/t/many-things-are-measurable-what-things-get-damaged-in-the-measuring/99) measured?
* A discussion needs to be started! \(\#protocol-councils\)
* **interoperability** \(I can speak with others\)
* common vocabularies \(especially resource ontologies\)
* protocol bridges
* data translators
* choice of platform \(protocol, integration & consultation work\)
* **accessibility** \(I can use it\)
* free as in money, free as in freedom
* simplicity
* configurability
* **extensibility** \(I can build with it\)
* hyper-modularity
* pluggability
* good architecture \(the simplest code that can do the job\)
* **agility** \(I am not attached to it\)
* \(see 'extensibility'\)
* re-questioning appropriateness of protocol & technology
* receptivity to other protocols and technologies
> [name=Sid] I can add a few guardrails for economic design of the collective. For example: following a co-op structure, value accruing to instruments like credits, instead of shares \(sufficiency instead of scarcity etc.\)
