Removal of author tags in trunk
Folks,
The ASF discourages (at least it has for as long as I have been around)
the use of @author tags. While I have no wish to remove an existing
@author tag of an author that wants it to stay, I am more than happy to
do the leg work to remove @author tags if that author wishes.
With this in mind, I've scanned trunk for author tags. The results are
at the end of this e-mail.
If you have are for *your* @author tags to be removed from trunk, reply
here and I'll make the changes.
Thanks,
Mark
Note: I haven't taken the time to clean this list up at all

I don't see why we can't remove all. Put them into a file as the
contributors (pom.xml?) and remove from the source. A lot of Commons
libraries did that 5+ years back and there's been no backlash.
It's not like they're Copyright statements.

Yes, that was my point. We can all decide to remove our
individual @author tag, but those folks we cannot reach will
eventually stay as the sole authors of the given code.
> - anyone is free to remove his own author tags
Is there anything that prevents us to decide to remove
all @authors tags from our entire codebase?
AFAICT most of the people are fine with removing their tags, so
in case we can do that, I see no reason to go trough individual process.

- there's to many authors we won't reach
- anyone is free to remove his own author tags
- if Mark offers the service for those who are fine to have theirs
removed, why not? He is asking, not forcing.

Done for mine in r1561025 (trunk). None of mine are in TC 7, I currently
don't care about removing those from TC 6.
