Dear Sir/Madam,
Hi, I am a newcomer of Apache. I wonder that why others could assign the
issue to themselves. However, I cannot see the "Assign" link in the Apache
JIRA. In which ways I could make this button shows up? I don't know if I
cannot assign the issue to me, how could I make contribution to the issue?
Could you give me some instructions?
Jack,
This is a side effect of the (poor in my opinion) way some projects have
configured their Jira workflow.
My recommendation is not to worry about assigning issues. Just comment
on the issue that you are researching it and then add comments / patches
as you progress.
As a counter-example, Tomcat (actually all projects using Bugzilla
rather than Jira) has the assignee hard-coded to the appropriate dev@
mailing list and simply doesn't bother with the concept of assignee.
