Description
From a 2004 email
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/jakarta-jmeter-dev/200402.mbox/<4039F65E.7020406@atg.com>
"author tags are officially discouraged. these create difficulties in
establishing the proper ownership and the protection of our
committers. there are other social issues dealing with collaborative
development, but the Board is concerned about the legal ramifications
around the use of author tags
I'd like to remove author tags from Harmony code to bring it closer into alignment with Android, which has no author tags.
Unless there are objections, I'll prepare a patch...
