Martin, I had met similar issue earlier, here is an email sent earlier to dev list:
>> FYI, I met an issue today that I can't attach files to a JIRA issue with the role of 'contributor'. Contacted Apache Infrastructure team and confirmed that: - For a given JIRA issue, only *reporter*, or *assignee*, or *committer* can attach file. - A contributor can only attach files to issues that's assigned and/or reporting to the contributor. - A workaround for a contributor to attach files to any issue is to first change assignee to the contributor, then attach files, then change the assignee back. >> I think someone just need to assign ZOOKEEPER-2355 to you since you are working on it.
