Vladimir Prus spake the secret code thusly:

Say, if I can made per-line comments on proposed library code, like gerrit does, it would be rather useful.

You can do this on github already.

You can make comments on any line of any commit.

Presumably that's why I've said, earlier:

In fact, maybe the best way to run a formal review (or informal review, whatever) is to post a link to github repository, where comments on the code can be made already, and issues created?

Comments and issues are important ways of providing feedback which haven't directly been part of Boost reviews before, but I don't think they replace the broader discussions which happen in traditional reviews.

They don't; it's just we see that formal reviews are not as well-attended as before, and one way to improve might be to make participation easier. -- Vladimir Prus CodeSourcery / Mentor Embedded http://vladimirprus.com
