advogato: Advogato trust network (2009)
A network of trust relationships among users on Advogato, an online community of open source software developers. Edge direction indicates that node i trusts node j, and edge weight denotes one of four increasing levels of declared trust from i to j: observer (0.4), apprentice (0.6), journeyer (0.8), and master (1.0).
This network has 6541 nodes and 51127 edges.
