Yes, it's all wired up and working in Fedora rawhide. The ratings flow
both ways, so that if the user clicks on the star rating widget then
it gets pushed back to fedora-tagger, and if the user hasn't got the
app installed then the fedora-tagger rating is shown. It works pretty
well now, but when the masses start (hopefully) using it in F21 it'll
be more statistically sound.

I don't think that works, as there's often an n:1 ratio of
applications to packages.
