Dmitriy,

I am still struggling to understand which portion of the code of conduct is
being violated. BTW, this point was raised during the Ignite incubation
process and the community agreed that it is up to the project community
itself to decide on the best process here. This is not an Apache matter (I
am too lazy to look for the thread now).

I have been on this project long enough to have a good understanding who in
the community has the best knowledge to fix a certain issue. When an issue
requires strong domain expertise, I will assign a ticket to a certain
domain expert to ensure that he or she are at least aware of it and try to
address it. If they cannot, then they can always unassign it.

I also use the table at the bottom of this page to find out domain experts
on different sections of the project:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/IGNITE/How+to+Contribute

BTW, this ticket in particular is absolutely not a casual newbie ticket and
can have dire consequences on the project quality if done wrong. Therefore,
I have picked the best domain expert to implement it or at least to comment
on it. I will assign it back to AG, unless we decide as a community that it
is a wrong process.

If you disagree with the process, please do not unassign any ticket
yourself. Feel free to start a separate discussion and we can have a PMC or
community decision on it.

D.
