-----------------------------------------
Summary: JIRA tickets should be able to be assigned to
Contributors and not just Committers
Key: LOG4J2-3285
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-3285
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: Request
Reporter: Michael Vorburger
New issue to follow up re. this from LOG4J2-3284, this is not about code but
tooling configuration and process for community management:
bq. I don't believe this Jira configuration allows us to assign tickets to
folks who aren't committers.
This is strange. It's definitely possible to fix this at the ASF. FYI I often
do this myself in another JIRA project at the ASF - the FINERACT one. Myself or
other committers of Apache Fineract such as [~awasum] or
[[email protected]] ([~ptuomola]) traditionally "promote" anyone who has
succssfully contributed a PR or two by adding them to a group in JIRA so that
they can assign assign to themselves that they want to work on.
May I suggest that this gets fixed for the Log4j JIRA project? I believe this
is important for a healthy community and to encourage active contributors from
folks who are not committers. Note that on GitHub issues this is the default. I
volunteer to help fix this for LOG4J2, if you would like to make me a JIRA
Admin for this project. [~ckozak] if you are not a JIRA Admin for LOG4J2
yourself, who is?
