A few months ago, I filed INFRA JIRA issue to add the Lucene project to review 
board (https://reviews.apache.org) and it was just resolved 
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-7630).

I’m not the biggest fan of review board, but it’s well supported by Apache and 
is sufficient at the key points for a patch review tool I think.

I don’t think we should make this mandatory and that it should just be treated 
as an additional, optional resource, but I wanted to alert people to it’s 
existence and perhaps start a discussion around a few points.

* I’ve been sold more and more over time of the advantages of a review tool, 
especially for large patches. The ability to comment at code points and easily 
view differences between successive patches is super useful.

* I don’t know how I feel about moving comments and discussion for patches out 
of JIRA and into review board. I’m not sure what kind of integration there is.

I’m using https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-5656 as a first trial 
issue: https://reviews.apache.org/r/23371/
