I installed the Project and Project Issue modules yesterday, but it seems I can only assign an issue to myself or nobody. What do I need to do to be able to assign an issue to any user?
Won't work.... No way to do this. Against the open source way :-).
Seriousely, if you're using this outside of drupal, you might consider casetracker instead. I started with project, and moved to case tracker for similar reasons. It has this functionality. There's a lot of extra CVS stuff etc in project that gets in the way. Project has a lot of Drupal.org specific stuff in it.

When was the last time you used Project module? I use it currently and don't notice either of these issues. I used it under Drupal4.6 and it didn't have the problems then, even, but it wasn't as nice then as it is now, of course. I suggest you re-evaluate it because it no longer has either of those problems (being overly tied to cvs nor overly tied to drupal.org).
It doesn't have the ability to assign issues to another person though there are patches in the queue to allow this which need reviews and help.

4.7 was the last time I used it.
There are some key features that pushed me that way * Ability to invent my own case states. * Abiltiy to assign work to others. * Really intuitive filtering logic.
Using RTE's like tinymce would break the project every time it was edited because of the mixing of the need for body fields and state fields etc.
I have a lot of respect for Derek and the maintainers of Project, but when I asked them on the issue queue they suggested that they didn't really expect it to be used outside of drupal, that's when I found casetracker. It's alos a pretty sweet module with views integration etc.
My 2 cents.
