Sean Owen commented on INFRA-8402:
----------------------------------

Hi [~ipv6guru], thank you for creating the custom Spark permission scheme last year. I'm taking another look at ways to improve our workflow by locking down a few things.

Before I open a new request, I wanted to check if the following wish list items are possible?

- Make Component and Affects Version required for new JIRAs
- Set default priority to Minor and type to Question for new JIRAs.
- Only let Committers set Target Version and Fix Version
- Only let Committers set Blocker Priority

(ref: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-6889)

If so, what's the easiest way to change it -- ask nicely or can I modify something and send it over?

> 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.
