That would be a start, yes. :-)
What I had in mind was some (possibly external) authentication so that
the Author field is filled with the data from whoever's currently
logged in via HTTP.
Not sure if ticgitweb can also run as CGI script behind some Apache or
other CGI-capable webserver. If so, the information from the
$REMOTE_USER (or such) CGI environment variable could be used. Or the
information provided via OpenID...
