Ability to assign more than one person to a feature

Ability to assign more than one person to a feature would be helpful since often there are multiple people working on a project / feature, so it would be easier for other people to see who's responsible for a feature, and easier for each of the assigned people to see what they're responsible for or working on. In the "assigned to" field it could have checkboxes instead of a single checkmark.

    Thanks for sharing this idea.

    The assignee field is designed to indicate the current owner of the work item. At this time, we are unlikely to support multiple users assigned to the same feature.

    For this use case, it might make sense to create several requirements that each represent the work required from each team member. From there, a pivot report could be created to detail everyone working on the feature. Hope this helps!

    Can I say "GOD NO"

    As a part of IBM Connections, the worst thing we ever did was assign a todo tasks to 2 people.

    Both thought the other would do it and nothing got done.

    Better to break the task into sub tasks and assign them to 2 different people. (1 neck to strangle philosophy)
