In advogato, it's used to identify 3 levels: "Advogato performs certification to three different levels: Apprentice, Journeyer, and Master. This is actually done by running the basic trust metric three times, using the "level" value in the certificate as a threshold. Thus, certification of Apprentices is computed using all certificates, while Master is computed using Master certificates only." -- http://www.advogato.org/trust-metric.html > I'm thinking of a system of karma, where people > could be modded up for specific contributions in a particular area I'm thinking people could note specific contributions in either microblog entries, bookmarks, or a profile bio.
