One of the things I feared about leaving Google was leaving Mondrian.
But having used Review Board a bit, well, I've been pretty happy.

There are two things that I've really been wanting from it though...
 - interdiff reviews.  But I've seen a couple weeks back in the svn
   logs that this has been added, but that the UI for it wasn't
   exposed quite yet.  I'm not sure if this has changed, haven't
   updated in some time because I'm too lazy to update the database to
   reflect changes in the models
 - some sort of official release. :) But hey, it actually tends to be
   quite stable right out of SVN...

It's really easy to set up, run, and use.  I really do recommend it.
