The review pool functionality really doesn't work as I expect.
We have a policy that reviews need 2 reviewers. The review pool feature seems perfect for this...except that if I just set the review with 2 reviewers from a review pool and no named reviewer, CodeCollaborator complains that there is no reviewer.
To me this seems to completely miss the point of the review pool reviewers. I have assigned reviewers, and the whole point is that I don't need or want to specify who they are up front.
I have assigned reviewers to the review. I just don't know their names yet. Therefore I should be able to start the review. I shouldn't be able to FINISH the review without both slots being filled, but I should be able to start it. Otherwise there's a chicken and egg problem
* I can't start the review until someone fills a slot
* But they won't take a slot until the review is started
Please update so that review pool reviewers are counted for the purposes of starting a review. At the moment I have explicitly add someone, which misses the point of the review pool in spreading the effort across the team.
Thanks,
Ian
