%X The field of peer-to-peer reputation systems has exploded in the last few years.  Our goal is to organize existing ideas and work to facilitate system design.  We present a taxonomy of reputation system components, their properties, and discuss how user behavior and technical constraints can conflict.  In our discussion, we describe research that exemplifies compromises made to deliver a useable, implementable system.
