Indeed. With which nothing is wrong in principle, but there are other
interesting things to be done, like what LogiLogi Manta aims for, and
what you write about (although there are differences in our views too).

You can start by exploring LogiLogi Manta through:

http://en.logilogi.org/MetaLogi/TheMantaExperiment
http://en.logilogi.org/MetaLogi/LogiLogiManta

And you can also join the mailinglist if you want:

(I also forwarded this reply to the mailinglist)

Did you read Collective Intelligence by Pierre Levy ? Although almost
a decade old, it writes about just that. And even for it's differences
it will be an inspiring read anyway.

LogiLogi Manta will be running on LogiLogi.org, and easy to setup on 
other servers too...

I think we might find quite some common ground. What should be clear
however is that LogiLogi Manta is a project with quite a concrete
design, and thus a project with clear limitations too.

Our current aim is to get up a working first version in two more 
months with peer-groups, linking, rating, and editing-capabilities.

For later versions though, things are mucht more open.
