Google also does code reviews for some commonly used projects (or maybe that's part of the same thing? I don't know). I went through that last year with one of my Go libraries.
The idea is good, but the entire process is so bureaucracy-heavy and time-consuming that I found it both frustrating and entertaining in equal parts; like something out of Brazil (the film, not the country). So many emails, so many video meetings, so many people involved, so much talking. And all for looking at a 4,500 line Go library.
"Here's the code; just clone and look at it, and let me know if you find something"... It's not like you need my permission to do any of this *shrug*.
