Trust in any decision depends on many factors. One way of improving trust is by explaining why a certain decision has been made and how certain actions in the context of a decision have been performed. In order to provide such explanations information systems need a mechanism for recording decisions and actions. The open-source server ReduxExp is such a system. This paper describes the architecture of ReduxExp and first experiences with the system.
