The currently active Amarok team has defined the authors list to contain current contributors that have ownership (written it or maintaining it for a while) of amarok components or non-coding contributions to the project. As far as I can tell there is no legal reason to list all past contributors as authors. Myriam pushed a commit reflecting what we thought was the current state of that list yesterday. A few people don't seem to agree and reverted their own entries.
I assume those who consider themselves representatives and active contributors of the Amarok project are willing to do the work that earns that distinction. Let me point you to some continually ongoing tasks: Amarok regressions: https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=dorem&remaction=run&namedcmd=Amarok%3A%20regression&sharer_id=70102&list_id=224345 Amarok release blockers: https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=dorem&remaction=run&namedcmd=Amarok%3A%20release_blocker&sharer_id=70102&list_id=224346 Amarok most hated: https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=dorem&remaction=run&namedcmd=Amarok%3A%20most%20hated&sharer_id=70102&list_id=224347 And this weekend the meetings we hold at Randa will in a very significant way determine the future of Amarok: http://community.kde.org/Sprints/Randa/2012/Multimedia#Amarok_Topics As an author it's a given you'll try to contribute by being physically there, prepared materials to support the meeting or join by video chat (we hosted a G+ hangout for all the Amarok team to join, promise to be better with scheduling and lighting today).
