Permission to change project roles is restricted to admins / PMC, naturally. I don't know if it's documented beyond this that Gavin helpfully pasted: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SPARK/Jira+Permissions+Scheme
Another option is to make the list of people who you can assign to include "Anyone". You'd get all of Apache in the list, so I assume that's why it isn't the default, but might be the easier thing at this point in Spark. I had to add 6 new people just now while assigning ~40 JIRAs.
