Applied game theory

I've been doing negotiations over email to time-share light sources for the space elevator competition. Not easy. Teams have different needs and different budgets. Everybody wants to win, which means beating everyone else. Nobody wants to reveal the exact limits of their own capabilities. So there's a bit of inherent tension. It's hard to find

I would suggest a trusted outside source without strong ties to any one team operate as middle-man if you can find such a person. I would guess the sponsers might have a suggestion. Might not be feesable, but it is a way to have sharing without an exchange of inormation, a sort of human one way gate.
