1. How will we choose people to give "contributor" access to JIRA? 2. As far as I understood the main point here is to give a possibility for non-committers to assign bugs. So non-committers can search for non-assigned bugs. Right?
SY, Alexey 2006/12/14, Mikhail Markov <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
HI! In my opinion, it's hard to track open JIRAs now. For example, if the JIRA is not assigned then there is no simple way to understand if there's activity in there except opening it in web-browser and reading comments. Only committers could modify the status of JIRAs and put them "In progress" mode. As we have not so many committers they could not monitor large number of open JIRA. One of possible solutions is implemented in Apache Geronimo project: there is so called "JIRA contributor" role when the person could modify JIRAs like committers (close/reopen JIRA, modify it's status etc.) but could not commit the code to the repository. This role seems intermediate between contributor and committer ones, some kind of "committer kindergarten" :-). I think that for better processing JIRA issues we could implement similar role in Harmony (or invent something better). What do you think? Regards, Mikhail
