@author tags are discouraged across ASF Java code; Maven projects can use the POM, while other projects can use whatever other mechanism they deem appropriate for establishing a record of contributors. My personal view is that the presence of author tags is not so offensive as to hold up a release. WRT the Javadoc objection, in general I would say this is a subjective call (how much does the incorrectness of the Javadoc limit usability?) and I haven't yet looked at the specific commit(s) in question (though having stepped into this discussion, I don't see how I can now avoid it ;) ). Bear in mind that a -1 on a release vote constitutes just a negative vote as opposed to a veto [1].
