Re: [cdt-dev] Gerrit

Hi,

I'm a big fan of code reviews, so I think anything helping
making them easier for CDT is a good thing.

I've never used Gerrit yet (outside the EclipseCon tutorials :)),
but if we look at how well our migration to Git went, 
moving to use Gerrit does not worry me too much.

However, currently, I find that getting committer changes 
reviewed by another committer does not happen all the time, and
I wouldn't want to prevent changes to go in because of that.

So, I think using Gerrit is a good idea as long as committers
can still approve their own changes, as you suggest.

Thanks

Marc
