I would like to add, that maybe we should allow for author tags for
stuff submitted by external developers. I don't yet know if it's a good
idea, please let me know what you think.

Actually, that is probably worse than just leaving all the tags in. The
code is built and managed by the Avalon PMC. The PMC has to be fully and
entirely responsible. Inserting people's names (*especially* those of
external developers) into the code is detrimental to that goal.

Point accepted. Since I really didn't have a strong opinion on this one, I hope you don't mind if I grab yours ;-)
