Proposal passed a while back, funding it. So far work has concentrated on automating the current system for reviewing invoices, process, payments, etc., but work is beginning soon on the voting part. This is though basically just automating the informal system that’s already in place. E.g. you have to find two people in your domain to nominate you to become a contractor. What new besides the automation is the appeal process if your contractor status is revoked. I suppose a person you vouch for’s reputation is tied to yours in the same sense it is at a company.
One interesting thing about SourceScred is that if you bring someone on, their reputation is literally flowing to you and vice versa. A “bonus” for bringing on someone that works out has been discussed. But actually when I imagine how it might work, I think this would happen organically, as the person you brought on would be more inclined to work with you and “pay you back”.
