Robert, humour us, please express the following use case in format-08
syntax...
Publish an entry which indicates multiple people who are to be
known as an "author" of the entry, and distinguish them from
some number of persons who are to be known as a "contributor"
to the entry (while not actually being "authors"). Their
"contributions" might be background research, for example.
Refer to sections 4.2.1 and 4.2.3 for the meanings of "author"
and "contributor".
