I am certainly happy to share credit with anyone on any file I work on. IMHO, anyone who does anything non-trivial has the write to put their name on a xyz.py file, at least if they are happy to cede their copyright to William Stein. In fact, for licensing issues, I would think it is useful to know who worked on which files. If the concern is that it is hogging docstring real estate, then maybe a new xyz.history file could be created which would have all this info in it?
