Other comments:
"I disagree with the comments made about reviews. The problems with code reviews aren't the actual review; but rather reviews of poorly designed code. Reviews of well designed code are enjoyable and educational. Also; they take only a fraction of the time. It is an admirable goal to want to eliminate the need for code reviews. After we implement other practices that improve our design; code reviews will stop being a burden. In the meantime; they are a good indicator that we have a problem. Eliminating the review prior to proving that we have corrected our design practices is sweeping the problem under the rug or effectively adding an ""IGNORE_"" to the test."
