Project Overview

Pau Code Review is a light weight code review tool. The goal of the project is to produce a tool with the following capabilities:

  • Automatically locate new and modified files that should be included in the review.
  • Highlight the source code that will be reviewed.
  • Produce a single html page containing all of the source.
  • Maintain a minimal dependency list.
  • Ease of installation.

If you require a tool that will provide both the code review artifacts and a strict review process, there are several available. I can recommend the open source Codestriker tool (http://codestriker.sourceforge.net/).

Project Name

Nothing much to report here - Pau is simply Hawaiian for finished. The pronunciation is a little trickier, though. Pau is pronounced like poe and not pow.
