[Building Sakai] Crucible or other code review tools?

[Berg, A.M.]

Hi all,

Just a brainstorm idea, a light weight partial solution for peer code review in Sakai is the use of the tag list plugin in Maven (http://mojo.codehaus.org/taglist-maven-plugin/) with a convention for special Sakai specific tags. If a peer review finds code that needs reworking you can place a Sakai specific tag in a comment. You can have different tags for different parts of the peer review workflow. The comments sit close to the source code and in the revision control system and anyone can generate reports automatically for the whole of the code base via the mvn site goals.

Just an idea,
Alan

The problem is that the version of SVNKit that works with Crucible is
only compatible with newer versions of subversion. I think the cutoff
is around v1.4.
