    Description

      We should remove @author tags from the source code. We give contributors credit in at least three places (Jira, subversion and CHANGES.txt). Many files have been substantially re-written by a range of contributors and their @author tags are no longer accurate. Also, @author tags imply individual ownership, when we should rather strive for community ownership.
