Which as far as google tells me will do for code comments what fxCop does for code.

But I am unable to find a download for this.
Is this an internal tool from Microsoft or is the tool renamed?

Oh good. A willing victim.

Now a couple of things

1) Spaces over tabs? Are you insane? Tongue Out
2) When will we see an easy way to turn off particular rules?

They differ from the default behavior of the visual studio templates. For example the:

SA1200: All using directives must be placed inside of the namespace.

Is there any documentation availible on the why, just like there is with fxcop?

There is a configuration tool in the program's directory, which seems to let you select what rules you want (I didn't look that hard as it was nearly 5 on Friday!)

Ah, I forgot, "on a per project basis".

OK that is being very fussy, as it's really a tool for company standard rules; except those us working on multiple projects for multiple companies ...
