Hi,
just sitting in Aarons' "incubating open source communities" talk and
a subject that came up again is removing the author tags. I know, that
in the past, I've been -1 on this but as we do have a CONTRIBUTORS
file now, I'd like to discuss this again.
Basically removing all the @author tags from the velocity code base
and docs and replacing it with 'Velocity development community' and a
link to the dev-list.
How about doing this?
I have become thoroughly opposed to having my email address anywhere
in the source, due to people asking me questions off of the mailing
list. Drives me nuts...
As for removing my name... sure, whatever, i'll go with the flow
either way on that. i see value both ways. since the ASF in general
seems to frown on the idea, that's probably the flow we should follow.
Best regards
Henning
