some source files seem to have @author tag containing copyright notices
(cc'ing general to inform the pmc. if this is not the right procedure then
hopefully someone will post a correction.)
some of the source code (still under weblogic packages) contains some
strange @author tags. example:
@author Copyright (c) 1997 by WebLogic, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
i think that looks a little confusing. if the code has been donated to
apache then (as i understand it) the copyright is vested with the ASF (and
indeed, this is stated above). the above line seems just to muddy the
waters.
maybe this is just a mistake and the line should be:
@author WebLogic, Inc.
(or something like that.)

A mistake; copyright has been transferred to Apache.
I only found one file with an @author tag like that (NestedThrowable), and
I'll be modifying it as you suggest next time I check in. Sorry!
