Trac Market Plugin

Description

A plugin that enables financial trading of contracts on wiki page versions right now, and later other tradeable attributes such as ticket priorities, comment ratings, etc.

Google for "decision markets" and "prediction markets" to understand what this is all about. The short version is that you can use this plugin to avoid a tremendous amount of bureaucracy and middle management in an organization, a company, or an open-source project.

For example, when trading wiki page contracts, the highest-priced version of a wiki page becomes the default viewable version; this replaces the "last edit wins" behavior of a standard wiki, and provides review and moderation without adding a cumbersome workflow process.

This plugin requires WikiWorkflowPatch.

Download/Source

For the time being, rather than clutter up the trac-hacks SVN repository with alpha code, I'm making the tracmarket plugin available only at http://trac.t7a.org/t7a/browser/trac/hacks/marketplugin/0.9 -- beware that, while we're using this code internally at t7a.org, it is unstable, shifting sand. In the meantime, if you're interested in working on or using this project, contact us at partners@terraluna.org.
