The project is inspired by WikiTrust, but unrelated.
We have re-designed from scratch an algorithm that provides authorship
tracking, and that is simpler, easier to maintain, and more efficient than
WikiTrust.
Part of the reason is that WikiTrust is difficult to maintain... in fact, I
would really love to find a good home for it -- some place where it can run
in a production environment, which UCSC is not. So, the project we are
proposing would make at least one of the outputs of WikiTrust available in
a stable way, and with better quality.

Hi!
Is it related to WikiTrust [1]? They managed to track every word's
authorship and even assign content-driven reputation to the authors. I'm a
big fan of that project
