Hi Yu Li! Someone with JIRA admin rights (which should be at least everyone on the PMC) needs to edit the project roles to add them as a contributor.
If you don't have such rights yourself, emailing the dev@ list or pinging someone from the PMC on the JIRA issue should suffice. (I've added Yu Sun to the contributor set, so they ought to be able to assign themselves HBASE-16287) On Wed, Jul 27, 2016 at 12:38 AM, Yu Li <car...@gmail.com> wrote: > A similar question, that based on current status if a new user would like > to contribute to our project, how could we make him/her able to assign a > JIRA to him/herself?
