I guess you didn't read the comment he posted. In fact, he copied the rules as stated by Shahrukh on the Tango-L and said they would also apply to his Blog.

I think the secret of making this an effective tool would be volume. If
100 students feel the workshop was well-taught and worth the trouble,
then the comments of 2-3 dissenters could be taken in context. If only
10 folks participate and rate everyone on the list, then it would be
useless.

The blog itself, however, did not make this clear. I'm sure Alex's intention is in the right place and that he will make any necessary changes to make his site a success. I'm looking forward to how it develops.

For myself, I plan to post some reviews of recent workshops I've attended. To be honest, I don't really attend bad workshops, so I'll try to keep my positive reviews specific and meaningful. I'll also let my community know about it and encourage their participation, though they tend to be a quiet lot.
