The physics of ``particles of spin $\leq 2$'' leads to representations of a Lie algebra $\Xi$ of gauge parameters on a vector space $\Phi$ of fields. Attempts to develop an analogous theory for spin $>2$ have failed; in fact, there are claims that such a theory is impossible (though we have been unable to determine the hypotheses for such a `no-go' theorem). This led BBvD [burgers:diss,BBvd:three,BBvD:probs] to generalize to `field dependent parameters' in a setting where some analysis in terms of smooth functions is possible. Having recognized the resulting structure as that of an sh-lie algebra ($L_\infty$-algebra), we have now reproduced their structure entirely algebraically, hopefully shedding some light on what is going on.
