Dear folks @ community, Hello.
One question came to my mind about the licensing issue.

Should we also change these old customs ? I mean, usage of real person's names in author tags should be discouraged ? # e.g. (Preferable?) # "site" module: # <author email="apache.AT.apache.DOT.org">The Apache Software Foundation</author> # "jakarta-site2" module: # <author email="general.AT.jakarta.DOT.apache.DOT.org">Apache Jakarta Project</author> I do appreciate any inputs/comments/suggestions.
