Definition
A Code Reviewer is somebody who looks on the source code, checks it for correctness and thinks about optimizations.
Why
Nobody is perfect, we are human too. Even today then and when a bug shows up we did not recognized before. The only way to make the linux-dvb code as stable and robust as possible is that as many developers as possible analyze the source and watch out for potential bugs and weaknesses.
When
If you encounter a bug please file a Bug Report to the linux-dvb Mailing List or even better, send a Bugfix in unified diff format created with cvs -q diff -pu > patchname.diff to the mailing list.
If you have a nice idea how to make things better then please start a thread on the linux-dvb Mailing List and let's discuss it.
