More correctly, one should assign oneself *ONLY* if:
 * working on a fix
 * doing it NOW (not tomorrow/next week/month/year)

A bug assigned to somebody is a clear sign to others that it is being
worked on, and we need not worry about it anymore.

Cheers,

When you say "In the wiki" where do you refer to?

Ask users to only assign just before starting working

2014-01-16 Thread Alberto Salvia Novella
I think, in the wiki, we should *ask users* to assign bugs only when the 
assignee will be able to work on it in a very short term. Otherwise 
those bugs can stay *unattended* for years.
