Multi-winner adaption of STAR voting
SRV-PR (the method that is most commonly brought up when disusing the proportional multi-winner version of STAR voting) is not even proportional. If you want further proof of this, check out the example Warren created where it can fail to elect a Democrat when 49% of voters give a max score to the Democrat and min stars to the Republicans: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/electionscience/proportional$20srv$3F%7Csort:date/electionscience/aOMyxkoey4Q/KepDTrY7AwAJ (the example is mentioned in Warren's first comment in the linked discussion). It can meet relaxed definitions of proportionality in which each party runs clone candidates equal to the number of seats up for grabs, however the only reason these relaxed definitions of proportionality work is because they rely on candidate cloning which is something that turns SRV-PR into RRV just like it turns STAR into score.
Obviously STAR voting advocates shouldn't advocate for a broken "proportional" voting method that isn't even proportional. But they still need a proportional multi-winner version of STAR voting method that they can mention to as a long term goal when ever the topic of proportionality comes up.
Here is a discussion about what that method should be: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/electionscience/HkgoqQiGN4k

It's defiantly the simplest multi-winner adaption of STAR voting. And the last round of RRV generally matters the most.

We've discussed RRV with an added reweighted runoff for the last seat only. Is that what you mean here?

Easiest to explain and comprehend and tabulate. True PR with a STAR twist at the end.

Elect the STAR winner each time while using RRV's re-weighting equation each round

To clarify. STAR-PR is the same as SRV-PR. It just got renamed. If you want to compare variations it would help me if you describe details. ie. runoff every round or certain rounds. Reweighting every round or certain rounds...

Not really PR; overly complicated
