Historically, we've given out canconfirm privileges to folks who make valuable contributions to the bug database, both in terms of filing/fixing bugs and triaging existing bugs. There doesn't appear to be much process around giving out the privilege. > (2) When a bug is out of the UNCONFIRMED status, what individuals can > set the "Assigned To" field? The Assigned To field is rarely used. It's most common use is if a bug is blocked on a specific individual, for example for feedback on a patch or to land an already reviewed patch. > (3) Before starting work on an UNCONFIRMED bug, what's the most > efficient way of getting that bug assigned to you (assuming you do not > have "canconfirm" privileges, etc)?

Various folks have expertise in various areas, but there isn't a concept of module ownership like there is in bugs.mozilla.org.
