public class Rating extends ElementBase
Stores information about a rating connected to an asset. Ratings provide informal feedback on the quality of assets and can be added at any time. Ratings have the userId of the person who added it, a star rating and an optional review comment. The content of the rating is a personal judgement (which is why the user's id is in the object) and there is no formal review of the ratings. However, they can be used as a basis for crowd-sourcing feedback to asset owners.
