Project Lead

Jira Software projects where it is set to 'Unassigned'), and potentially elsewhere in Jira
(e.g. in permission schemes, notification schemes, issue security schemes and workflows).
Default Assignee
the user to whom issues in this project are initially assigned when created. Can be
either the 'Project Lead' (above), or, if Allow unassigned issues is set to 'On' in Jira's
general configuration, 'Unassigned'. There are also default component assignees.
Default Assignee on new projects?
By default, new projects also have their 'Default Assignee' set to 'Unassigned.'
Project Roles
members are users/groups who fulfill particular functions for this project.
Versions
Versions can also have a Release Date, and will automatically be highlighted as
"overdue" if the version is unreleased when this date passes.

component, which is useful if you have different people leading different sub-teams in
your project.
