#### Issue Assignment in Github
-Often, new contributors ask to be assigned an issue they are willing to take on. Unfortunately, due to GitHub limitations we can only assign issues to [org members](#community) or repo collaborators. Instead, a code owner will remove any `help-wanted` or `good-first-issue` flags and verbally state in an issue comment that it is yours to work on.
