Is there a way to automatically assign code reviews once the change set is associated with a defect/workitem?
We just moved to RTC for source control from SVN. We had an in house tool for SVN that would take each check in and assign a reviewer and keep up with reviews and assignments. We know that RTC will let you assign a reviewer manually and if you put th process in place require that the review be completed before you deliver a change to a stream.
What we would like is to be able to write something that when a developer associates a change set to a workitem the system would automatically assign someone from a list of names to review that change but that review completion would not be required for deliver to the stream.

Accepted answer
Lisa,
short answer: yes. (but there is nothing out of the box to do this)
I am currently building a very similar thing. Unfortunately I am about to go on vacations for two weeks and cannot enlarge now.
Please google up Ralph Schoon Jazz in Flight blog (search for work item links) and also take a look at https://jazz.net/library/article/1000 as it is all in there. I will gladly share some ideas when I am back.
Where is that list of reviewer names stored? What do you plan to do when a change set is added to a work item that is already linked to another / already has a reviewer?
If you can describe the process behind your reviews a bit more I can give detailed advice.
