All members of the Asterisk Developer Community have access to issues in
the ASTERISK project.

You have a few options here.

1. You can wait until the issue is worked by someone in the community, or
by the Asterisk team here at Digium. All Open issues are put into a queue
and worked as developer resources become available.

2. You can put a bounty on the issue and see if someone in the larger
Asterisk Developer Community would like to be hired to fix it. Issues with
bounties are much more likely to attract a developer than issues without
(developers have to eat too).

More information on bug bounties can be found here:
