Please do _not_ take the issue out of assignee's hands without asking first, and definitely do _NOT_ push the fix until the original assignee at least performs some sort of handover. Especially don't do that in the span of less than 24 hours, where the assignee might just be asleep. 

Yes, that was odd. Please don't reassign JBS issues unless you either talk with the assignee or it has been clearly abandoned.
