I also think this is a great idea if we can do it. Thanks for bringing it up, Kirk!

I do not see any reason why Contributors should not be able to assign issues to themselves, it would definitely help onboarding new contributors to the project without giving more permissions as necessary. No need to contact Infra for this change, I have Jira Admin permissions and can do the task. 🙂 I will work on this probably tomorrow. --Mark On Wed, Sep 21, 2022 at 2:08 PM Kirk Lund <kl...@apache.org> wrote: > Contributors have the "Assignable" permission, but are lacking "Assign > User" which despite the text description means that they cannot assign a > ticket to themselves.
