That is my understanding, yes.  Perhaps our mentors can tell us more?

(In any case, you should go to the -user and -dev mailing lists instead of the people personally if there is a problem. These are ASF projects, not any individual's. I tend to ignore personal emails asking talking about JSPWiki these days. Most things are better discussed on the mailing list.)

Is this an Apache rule? If it isn't, I would *much* prefer to keep the
author tags (which aren't a copyright issue, they provide necessary and often valuable attribution, e.g., who to go to when there's a problem). I think it'd be a real mistake to remove them if we didn't have to (and
if we did, while I know it'd be pointless to argue with the Apache
Foundation over this, I do think it's a Bad Idea not to include author
information.
