Description
New issue to follow up re. this from LOG4J2-3284, this is not about code but tooling configuration and process for community management:
I don't believe this Jira configuration allows us to assign tickets to folks who aren't committers.
This is strange. It's definitely possible to fix this at the ASF. FYI I often do this myself in another JIRA project at the ASF - the FINERACT one. Myself or other committers of Apache Fineract such as awasum or petri.tuomola@gmail.com (ptuomola) traditionally "promote" anyone who has succssfully contributed a PR or two by adding them to a group in JIRA so that they can assign assign to themselves that they want to work on. (Long before we invite such people to become committers in our ASF community.)
May I suggest that this gets fixed for the Log4j JIRA project? I believe this is important for a healthy community and to encourage active contributors from folks who are not committers. Note that on GitHub issues this is the default. I volunteer to help fix this for LOG4J2, if you would like to make me a JIRA Admin for this project. ckozak if you are not a JIRA Admin for LOG4J2 yourself, who is?
