PS: if you want proper ordering, you can do
irb(main):005:0> issue.zip(people.cycle) {|i,p| printf "%s => %s\n", p, i}
person1 => issue1
person2 => issue2
person3 => issue3
person1 => issue4
person2 => issue5
person3 => issue6
irb(main):006:0> issue.zip(people.cycle).map {|i,p| [p,i]}
=> [["person1", "issue1"], ["person2", "issue2"], ["person3",
"issue3"], ["person1", "issue4"], ["person2", "issue5"], ["person3",
"issue6"]]
