How to contribute to the Maven project

Hi!

I've added a field to our JIRA instance called "Complexity". This field is
an indicator on how hard the issue will be, for the actual definition,
please read[1]. There's a wiki page at our Codehaus Confluence that reads
from JIRA and shows an updated list[2].

The intention is to make it easier for new folks that would like to help
out on Maven development.

Please try to set the field if you feel that it something a non-committer
should be able to solve.

I agree. I was just rushing off to check there weren't any more default
assignee's after the jira flood :)

I was thinking today that changing that query qould be a good idea - or
perhaps just show the assignee on the page?

Yes I think it's not a good practice to assign by default the issue to 
someone.
The person shhould assign it to himself when he wants to work on it.
I just removed the default assignement for my plugin in m1 ;-)

The lists are currently only for Maven 2 issues but there is no reason why
they shouldn't cover Maven 1 issues in the future. 

IMO there shouldn't be a default assignee, WDYT?

Be careful with this rule
A lot of plugins (in m1) are auto-assigned to the plugin's manager.
I must deactivate this rules for my plugins but I always forgot to do it
Actually I have more than one hundred of issues assigned to me.
I know that Jason had also a lot of issues.

Hm, that's a good point. Unless someone objects to this I'll do it later

One remark though. I think the Jira's filters should be updated to
take only "Unassigned" issues. If the issue is currently assigned, we
could assume someone is taking care of it, right?

WDYT?

Cheers,
Stéphane
