Well, first of all. Jira has a nice link called "In Progress" in the browse-project-page (http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY) and it does not have any "open and assigned" link. Secondly, "assigned" is not an an issue status in while "in progress" is. Thirdly, I think that people should assign to an issue which they seriously intend to work with and set it to "in progress" when they are actually working on it (which of course ussually should be at the same time, but not always). -- Bernt Marius Johnsen, Database Technology Group, Staff Engineer, Technical Lead Derby/Java DB Sun Microsystems, Trondheim, Norway
