Any committer can pick up and test/commit a patch. I just happen to be working 
the dotnet side.
Hopefully Shankar will pick up the WSAS patch since I am not there yet.

Try to close and let's see what happens.

So,

For a Non-Committer.  Should I resolve the issue when I attached the patch 
file.  Then when the patch has been committed and verified I should go back in 
and Close the issue?

Also should I be asking a committer to apply the patch, (I've been asking 
Drew)?  Or should I just wait till someone goes thru and picks-up the resolved 
patches to commits them?  What the procedure here?

-Ben

Hi Drew,
I think it is really close to what you guessed. Here is how it goes as I
have heard and seen,

1. Anybody (it can be a commiter or a non-commiter) can report a JIRA.
2. Commiters can assign a jira to himself and resolve them. (Non-commiters
should apply patches, they can't directly assign or resolve jiras)
3. Normally the one who reported the jira should verify the fix and close it
or reopen if it is not fixed. Even a non-commiter can close a JIRA reported
by himself.
4. If the one who reported the jira is not closing it for a long time, a
commiter can close it. Normally this is done near a release.
