> Spark project has several groups (https://issues.apache.org/jira/plugins/servlet/project-config/SPARK/roles):
> 1. committers
> 2. contributors
> 3. developers
> We added many people to the contributors group in order to assign JIRAs to them. However, this group can also do the following:
> 1. Modify "fixed versions" and other fields.
> 2. Assign a JIRA to themselves by clicking "Start Progress".
> We want to have a group, e.g., developers, who in the group can be assigned to JIRAs. But they cannot modify fields like "fixed versions" and find a way to get JIRA assigned to themselves. This is important for project management and it helps reduce duplicate efforts.
> Basically, we want the "assignee" field to accept people from the "developers" group and then we can move some contributors to developers. This provides an alternative solution to INFRA-8365.
