And I have to disagree with you Joe. To me, a mandatory RTC policy says “we don’t trust anybody”. Sure, it doesn’t discriminate, but it is also a PITA. One project I mentored uses RTC along with ReviewBoard and mandates that you cannot commit your own work and every commit must be formally reviewed. I have found this process to be so onerous that I have never committed any code to the project, even though I really would like to. I find the pace of this project to be fairly slow. But it seems to fit within the corporate culture that most of the committers seem to work in.
OTOH, I am involved in a project that uses CTR but where feature branches are frequently created to allow others to review and improve significant new work before it is integrated. As a consequence, new features are introduced at a much faster pace in this project.
