OSID - osid.tracking.IssueFrontOfficeAssignmentSession Service Interface Definition

Interface	osid.tracking.IssueFrontOfficeAssignmentSession
Implements	`osid.OsidSession`
Used By	`osid.tracking.TrackingManager`
Used By	`osid.tracking.TrackingProxyManager`
Description	This session provides methods to re-assign `Issues` to `FrontOffice` objects. An `Issue` may appear in multiple `FrontOffice` objects and removing the last reference to an `Issue` is the equivalent of deleting it. Each `FrontOffice` may have its own authorizations governing who is allowed to operate on it. Adding a reference of an `Issue` to another `FrontOffice` is not a copy operation (eg: does not change its `Id`).
Method	canAssignIssues
Description	Tests if this user can alter issue/front office mappings. A return of true does not guarantee successful authorization. A return of false indicates that it is known mapping methods in this session will result in a `PERMISSION_DENIED`. This is intended as a hint to an application that may opt not to offer assignment operations to unauthorized users.
Return	`boolean`		`false` if mapping is not authorized, `true` otherwise
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	canAssignIssuesToFrontOffice
