The ideas was so someone could contact who did that code and ask questions.
I believe this is now in the SVN history so that is unnecessary in code.

Hi all,
what about removing the author information from source files (like I did
in rev. 453960)?
Keeping this information in the source files is discouraged by the ASF
(clearer information about the contributors of a file can be derived
from the commit logs) and we have already mostly abandoned this practice
for new files... what about cleaning the old ones?
