Hi,

Just a minor thing I just noticed and certainly not an issue, but the ASF are 
not big on author tags.

The PMC can of course discuss and decide what to do here, but you may want to remove or 
change them to be “ASF" or “Apache Mynewt".

If they are removed you can see who worked on the file via the commit history. 
Author tags in 3rd party code (i.e. code not developed at the ASF) should be 
left as it is.


+1 this was on my TODO for an email to send out.

For all standard packages, I think it should be Apache Mynewt as author, and dev@ as the email address. These fields are really more useful for 3rd party packages that will be developed around the Apache Mynewt core.
