I'd rather leave author tags in third-party code, unless they refer to Flex committers. Flex committers are expected to see those changes, but third-party developers won't see them, generally, so you could argue that it's not fair to them to remove the tags without notice. FWIW the main reason to avoid author tags is to avoid users contacting committers directly, we want them to get in touch with the project instead. And many of our files have multiple authors anyway. -Bertrand
