Apache Lucene/Solr is a big project, is there anywhere in the official Apache Lucene/Solr website where each committer list the modules of interest/expertise ?
No, there is no repository like that. Each committer knows what their own expertise is of course, and sometimes may know a little bit about the expertise of a few others, but there is nothing documented. I feel fairly sure that most of them are unwilling to document their skills. If information like that is documented, it might saddle a committer with an obligation to work on issues affecting those areas when they may not have the free time available to cover that obligation.
I understand that all of us contributors ( and committers) are just volunteers, so no SLA is expected at all, but did the fact of the fixed version already assigned affect the address of that Jira issue ?
The fix version is initially assigned by the person who opens the jira. When an issue is opened, that field should not be populated, but we can't expect everybody to know that.
If one of the committers happens to notice that there is a fix version but nobody is actually working on the issue, that may get cleared out. A committer will usually only enter one or more values in the fix version field if they are reasonably certain that they will actually get a fix committed to those specific releases. For this reason, that field is often left blank until the change is actually ready. Releases are not scheduled in advance, so until a release manager has volunteered and started work on a release, we never know when it's going to happen.
