Or even 1.x. This is a graduation issue not a release issue.
Take your time.

I agree that these should be removed. I have seen Craig McClanahan's
name in @author tags in Tomcat and other projects, so I know they
exist elsewhere, but I definitely agree with you. Can we add this as
a Jira issue for 1.0.1?
My personal hope is to not delay the release for any reason other than
due to a mandatory requirement.

Usually, Apache projects don't have author tags. I actually can't
recall any project that does. There's a number of good reasons for
this.
- the people who worked on a file can easily be discovered via the
SCM system
- after a while others may modify the file and then the list
becomes a bit confusing
- removing individual author tags strengthens the code's affinity
to the community
A good tag might be
@author The Apache Shiro Project (shiro-dev@incubator.apache.org)
Up to you guys but I think they should be removed. Just my 2 cents.
