[edit] Overview
The RBE10K Project can benefit from an automated meritocratic system in many ways. Meritocracy is about creating trust, and automated meritocracy is about simplifying and speeding up the processes of deciding who's knowledge or character to trust, what information or resources to trust, and why.
Examples of automated meritocratic system are ebay, which helps deciding who to trust to close a purchase deal, and systems like Git version control system software, which are based on Networks of Trust. Academia implements a meritocratic system based on papers, referencing and peer-review, which is semi-automated, since there is software that weights references for a given paper to weigh its representativeness and agreement within academia about its worth, and the peer-review system has tools to automate the process having would-be reviewers selecting papers for peer-reviewing; peer-reviewing adds weight and trustworthiness to the peer-reviewed paper's author, and may also help increasing the trustworthiness of the reviewer.
This team is about creating meritocracy systems that are appropriate and compatible with an RBEM system, that can be automated or at least semi-automated, and that are easy to use, functional, and convenient. These meritocracy systems would be made an integral part of the system, and used as reference for automated governing systems for helping make sound choices in terms of intelligent allocation and safeguarding of scarce resources.
