Proposed reputation system protocol

Since it was on my mind from posts earlier today, I went ahead and 
sketched out the minimum RPC requests needed to make the reputation 
system usable, and added them to the topic's Wiki page: 
http://www.volity.org/wiki/index.cgi?Reputation_System (halfway down)

I originally thought that the system would be completely anonymous -- 
players could see reputation scores, but not the individual player 
votes that constituted them. But now, I can't think of a reason why we 
shouldn't allow total transparency. I welcome any arguments in either 
direction.

Transparency is good. I've long thought that a generalized reputation 
system for Jabber users and servers would be helpful, too, but haven't 
worked on that yet.
