Trustmetrics
Don't you think it is a lot like money. Someone pay you salary (that means he trusts you that mach to be usefull for community) and then it's up to you to distribute this money to other people, pay for bills, restorants etc (that means you have ability to rate them as "usefull for community" - for yourself in first place).
Still it is not clear should you be trusted to rate other people this way? May you give all your money to someone just becouse you like it? Is it you personal disision or it is not (becouse it whould meant that you trus that person "to be usefull for community").
Now you are. Same with TM. It is not argent yet to deside, but it will be if you'll try to use TM as universal trust equivalent (mail filtering, access etc).
