Picking up Jira Issues Assigned to Someone Else
Hi Everyone
Another topic that came up on the Community Day was whether a developer
could pick up a Jira issue already assigned to someone else.
At the moment I don't think we have any indication to show whether the
original assignee wants to keep the issue (e.g. they are already part way
through developing a solution) or whether they don't mind if someone else
picks it up to complete.
Does anyone have any feedback or ideas about how we could handle this?
Thanks
Sharan

I agree with Michael and Gil and Nicolas. If issue is not actively worked
on for days and even issue is not in progress, then its okay to take over.
And you are helping out that way.
We should have good level of rapport with each other, that one should not
mind if some one else takes over the issue if that issue is not worked on
for many days. If issue is 'work in progress" then definitely one should
discuss before re-assigning.
Making this level of rapport with each other like Nicolas is telling i.e
"feel free to re-assign in my case" is a highly recommendable :)
Thanks

Depending of the context.
If is a bug fix without activity, the reassign is good !
But in many case, and for my assigned issue fell free to reassign ;)
You are sure that a read the making modifications.

I think that in a community based Bugtracker, everyone can work on any
bug. A ticket is not under someone property, the assign attribute exists
to say that we intend to work on it.
There is no problem to work on an already assigned Jira, and provide
patch. Collaborating to get the best solution is the good way to do.
In my opinion, if i'm interested in a already assigned bug, i'll try too
provide a patch/start a discussion, without reassigning it to myself.
But if i pick up a jira and then consider i'm not able to to it, i'll
try to unassign myself from it.
Only if there is not answer and i got a good solution to the issue, i
can take the assignment ?
Am i wrong ?

Hi Sharan,
I think it depends...
If it is visible that the current assignee is actively working on the
topic (active discussions etc.) I would at least ask him if it is ok to
take over the issue.
If it is visible that the issue is not actively worked on and someone
else has the time to take over, I think it is ok to take over. It's
always possible to discuss and re-assign later.
I think we are working together and for me this includes helping out
when possible. And sometimes you assign yourself to an issue and it
get's abandonded after a while... why not pick it up then.
Curious what others think.
Regards,
Michael

How strenuous is it to apply some common decency and ask up front up if
assignment can be transferred? Maybe the Assignee forgot to update the
status of the issue. Maybe something else interfered. Our JIRA issues are
commonly not of the nature that changes need to be persisted fast.
Community over Code is the Apache Way!

Maybe "Work in Progress" status would show the assigne is still working on it.
Of course then if it has been obviously forgotten (no visible work for several days, weeks, months depending on the importance of the issue) then
asking a question if it could be reassigned would be the better way IMO...
