The market you are referring to is called the Foresight Exchange and is located here (originally launched in 1995). I work for the company that develops the software and we did not develop the Rite-Solutions market. However, we are working with GE, Siemens and others to do the same type of collective forecasting and decision making. More info can be found here.
Yes, it was part of FutureMAP and called the Policy Analysis Market(PAM). Here
is a good overview
of PAM. Interestingly enough, the majority of the *informed* press coverage about
it was positive. Here's an analysis.
