There are three important problems we must solve:
Accountability has both technical and non-technical benefits. On the technical side, accountability provides reliable information about faults, which can be used to build more resilient systems. Because accountability works for such a general class of faults, it can be used as a `safety net' that works even when other techniques fail. On the non-technical side, the ability to inspect a principal's record helps to build trust and reputation. Also, the very presence of an accountability system discourages some types of faults, such as rational/selfish behavior, since all faults are guaranteed to be detected eventually.
We are currently adding PeerReview support to FreePastry.
