Recently, a new twist on @author tags came up, from a direction I never would have expected. It seems that the JDK 1.5 compiler whines when you have non-ISO-8859-1 characters in Javadoc comments in your source files. Someone was kind enough to run a compile of a bunch of open source projects with 1.5, to help identify projects that have such sources.
It turns out that commons-beanutils has a few such occurrences -- because of non-ASCII characters in the authors's names in the @author tags.
Guess we need to tell such people to change their names if they want to be an @author :-).
Or tell Sun to fix their compiler...
