Yeah, it's on a published review request. We see the "comment" button next to the attachment, but when we click it, nothing happens. Unless you're a Superuser, created the request yourself, or have the Can Edit review request permission set. Honestly, i would have expected [ reviews | file attachment comment | Can Add file attachment comment] to have some effect, but it didn't make a difference. The behavior seemed completely odd to me too. We'll see if we can get to a newer version of ReviewBoard. I'll leave out the rant of how we just got this "new" version... Cheers for the prompt feedback though. If I learn any more, I'll be sure to report back.
