Yep. There was a positive vote (probably more than one actually), and 
since then nobody adds new @author tags, meaning the information is 
really not accurate.

What has stopped us is that we need to keep a track of these to give 
credit. And also show to the world the incredibly large developer 
group we are :-)

Traditionally (on C based applications) this is done with a CONTRIBUTORS 
file in the root of the project.
