So I misunderstood. I just checked that in the previous sage release tour the package authors (David Green and I) are correctly named, and the description of ticket #6491 clearly names both authors as well, and so does the documentation. However, just my name was given as author of the ticket. My understanding is that the release tour and the attribution in the documentation are what counts in the end. Now it is ticket #6750. The new bits of code are entirely written by myself, but of course most of the code for the new package version is identical with the old version. My judgment would be: It is OK that I am author of ticket #6750, but David Green must appear as one author in the release tour.
