Is it a reference to Gerrit Rietveld (Dutch architect and furniture designer)?

Yes, as I explain here: http://code.google.com/p/rietveld/wiki/CodeReviewBackground

I guess the architect part would make sense for a code review tool. :)

That's purely a coincidence. My dad was an architect and took me on trips of Rietveld's work. I also own some fairly original Zig Zag chairs (much to my family's despair, as they aren't too comfortable. :-)
