Given that everyone is free to work on whichever issues are of interest
to them (and post comments to the relevant tracker items), I've always
seen the assignment field as a way to request that a specific committer
either fix the problem themselves, or review a proposed solution and
either suggest improvements or check it in.
I think you're right that there isn't really an official policy written
down anywhere though - PEP 3 doesn't go into that kind of detail.
Cheers,
Nick.
