Hi, Alan.

That's what I remember too.  There were just too many objections to completely removing all @author tags.

I vaguely remember there was discussion on this topic a few years ago. I think (but might be wrong) that the guideline at the time was not to remove @author from existing code. In this case it is new code and if Jim is okay with it then I don't see any issue removing it.
