I was wondering after watching this mailing list fro the last few weeks if you guys have maybe thought about using something like reviewboard. We have been using it for our team for the past several months and have really liked it. I imagine it would cut down on the volume of traffic and make giving inline comments easier. It also tests to make sure the patch still applies when you go to review it. Here is a link to the instance that we use for our project: http://reviews.mono-a11y.org/dashboard/ Cheers, Stephen
