I wonder if, instead of just incremental code reviews, there would also be a way to get a 3rd party review our huge codebase and flag issues (architectural, real legibility -- not just "CC measures") to be dealt with. Then you could keep track of them and burn them down as part of "killing technical debt" goals.

I'd pay $$ just to have someone reviewing our Raman bowel of a codebase and documenting it.

  > and documenting it Sounds like you need two or three people dedicated to the task. Documentation is a whole profession by itself. Well, good documentation.

Yes! I am a reviewer for PullRequest and since I've been doing reviews with them I've been involved in at least one major review where I was given the opportunity to review the entire codebase. From there I was asked to give comments, suggestions, design ideas, and general feedback on a number of different criteria. I'm just a reviewer and can only comment on what I've experienced. But I can say that what you're asking has definitely been done.
