Darren,
  According to Nick's recent update of (http://poi.apache.org/guidelines.html 
), I think that authorship tags should no longer be included.

      Best,

               Tim

Subject: Code authorship

Hi

Just wondering what the form is when using code from elsewhere in the POI 
project when it comes to denoting authorship? 


For example on my current task enhancing XSSFTextBox I have pulled in from the 
XSLF src a number of files defining enums, and some code from the equivalent 
functionality in XSLF, but made significant changes in the process. 


As the originals were done by Yegor do I keep his @author tag (and maybe add my 
own where any changes have been made), or as I'm the one responsible for 
pulling all this into XSSF do I attribute it to just myself?

Thanks
Darren
