Remove all javadoc author tags from Java sources for the following reasons:

  • Many of them include email addresses which cause errors in the Javadoc processing.
  • Git keeps track of anyone who has modified a file in the log.
  • The code is owned by the collaboration, not by individuals.
  • Many of the files have been modified by two or more people which makes the tags inaccurate.
  • Many of the source files already do not have the tags.
