Geeking with the ReviewMonk
We are a big fan of code reviews at the BillMonk office, they are a good way to help find early bugs in our software and learn to write better code. We also use Subversion to store our source code, but could never find a good code reviewing tool that fit our needs — so we wrote our own! And since BillMonk is built on open source software, we thought it would be nice to give back. So if you’re also a geek, and have a need for a code reviewing tool, check out ReviewMonk at billmonk.com/geek or go directly to the SourceForge page.

Very cool. How come you opted for your own instead of using trac?

Trac is great - and we use it =), but there weren’t any plugins that did exactly what we wanted. The big difference is that Trac only knows about checked in changes. ReviewMonk allows you to see code changes that haven’t yet been checked in and are still local on a developer’s desktop.
Thanks for checking it out!
