In the spirit of shared ownership, what do people think of getting rid of @author tags (for committers or other dev people that consent?). Other apache projects have done so, for a host of reasons.

- some people don't use author tags, hence credit is uneven - author tags tend to only credit the original author, and not everyone that works on the code after (or does code reviews, lends ideas, etc, etc) - we have CHANGES.txt to generally credit people (and it prob does a better job)
