   I don't think there's an official policy against author comments, but it's 
certainly a discouraged practice. The version control system is much better 
than author comments in tracking down people who know a particular piece of 
code best, and explicit author comments go against the principle of the project 
community being jointly responsible for the entire codebase. Some projects 
maintain a CONTRIBUTORS file or include thanks to all contributors in release 
notes, both of which practices are much better than author comments in giving 
kudos to contributors. None of these is necessary.
