I'm not "taking over" but I made the following two changes: # any user is now "assignable" This seems rather non-dangerous as the persons who can actually assign didn't change so it doesn't really give more permissions to anyone. I guess the drawback is the auto-completion of our options will now show a quite larger list of user ids to choose among; I hope this won't be unpractical.
# the Reporter can assign issues This implies one can create and self-assign. Unfortunately it also means someone can create and assign to one of us. I hope this will be more useful than what it will be abused.. let'see, we can change it back in case of need.
