A few questions about contributing

[Cedric Gatay <ga...@gmail.com>]

Hi guys,

to contribute the most efficiently, I'm curious about few things :

* is someone is using IntelliJ IDEA?  I'm using the Eclipse code formatter
plugin, but I think my formatted code is not yet on par with the one
formatted by Eclipse, if another dev is using this IDE and got a good code
format setup, I would be interested in getting it.
* is it possible to allow "everyone" to be assigned to an issue in Jira ?
It could be cumbersome to find an issue not already taken by someone.

Regards,

i would prefer that only core committers are assigned to an issue,
that way we know someone is actually taking care of it and its easy to
find issues not taken by anyone.

if a non-committer wants to contribute a patch and "claim" an issue
while doing so they can leave a comment to that effect which should be
sufficient.

my two cents.

This is possible.
Jira setup is:

 Assignable User
Users with this permission may be assigned to issues.

   - Project Role (Administrators)
   - Project Role (Contributors)
   - Project Role (PMC)
   - Project Role (Committers)

i.e. we can add you to Contributors group.
Contributors can also:
- Edit Issues
Ability to edit issues.
- Schedule Issues
Ability to view or edit an issue's due date.
- Assign Issues
Ability to assign issues to other people.
- Resolve Issues
Ability to resolve and reopen issues. This includes the ability to set a
fix version.
- Close Issues
Ability to close issues. Often useful where your developers resolve issues,
and a QA department closes them.


I'm not aware of such precedent before so we have to ask other Wicket core
developers whether we can add you in this group.
I'm +1
