how to assign two persons on same task

Hi,

We,have adopted a pair programming principles. It means that in some cases we have two persons working on the same task. Unfortunately I didn't find any way how to assign two persons per task (except to duplicate it). Does anyone encounter in such problem or has a reasonable solution fot it?

My personal opinion:
Even with pair programming, it is still important to assign a single
person as being "responsible" for a given task (to avoid
misunderstandings like a "I thought you were going to do that").
You can then use the "approval" mechanism to assign the other person (or
people) to a given task.

Cheers,
Geoff

You could also define a top-level task with one owner, then create multiple
child work items with subtask details for each owner.
