Hi all,
It seems the privileges on our JIRA are very restrictive. Even though I
have privileges in the project, I could not assign a ticket to myself.
If we're to attract more contributors we should make it as easy as possible
for them (and our privileged contributors like committers and (P)PMC
Members) to work with the tools we utilise, while at the same time reduce
the administrative burden on others as maximally possible.
Even though we currently don't have that many open tickets in JIRA (see [1]
For this reason I suggest that we implement a more liberal permission
schema (see more on the subject at [2]), to ensure that:
1. all (P)PMC Members can administer the project in JIRA, including (but
not limited to):
1. adding components
2. all registered users can assign/unassign themselves to tickets
