[Mesa-dev] Improved Patch review using Gerrit

Hi list,

I'm trying to follow the patches and patchsets sent to mesa-dev and
really like the process of how they get reviewed. It's a good way of
catching bugs before they get committed. But currently this approach
has a downside (at least for me): It's easy to miss a patch and
happens from time to time to others as well (see
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/mesa-dev/2013-May/039178.html )

Has anyone thought about using Gerrit for code reviews (like done for
Libreoffice at https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/ )? I like the way it
integrates with git and might be a good idea to use for mesa-dev (and
maybe even dri-devel) as well.

Best regards,
 Christoph
