Hi,

I'm thinking you might not need to go this deep. This is from a standard Dspace 
1.5.1 configuration file:

## Set the options for how authors are displayed in the browse listing

# Define which field is the author/editor etc listing.  This should be listed 
in the
# field webui.itemlist.columns, otherwise it will have no effect.
# This cannot be a field already marked out as a title or a date, as this
# will also have no effect.  This is used in conjunction with the
# webui.browse.author-limit field below, to truncate author lists.  For
# configuring links to author publication lists use webui.browse.link below.
# (This setting is not used by the XMLUI as it is controlled by your theme)
#
# webui.browse.author-field = dc.contributor.*

I am assuming that uncommenting the 'webui.browse.author-field' property and 
setting it to dc.creator will achieve what you're after in terms of telling 
Dspace who the "author" is.

Note that you will have to confirm the column configuration in 
webui.itemlist.columns as well:

In your case, you'll probably want to change:

webui.itemlist.columns = thumbnail, dc.date.issued(date), dc.title, 
dc.contributor.*

to

webui.itemlist.columns = thumbnail, dc.date.issued(date), dc.title, dc.creator

Hope this helps!

Cheers,

Kim
