Yes Aleksey, I know, I never had the intention to replace author names in
headers, check my response to Timo for a brief explanation about it.

One thing though, One of the changes I introduced to rbuild is the
contributors.rbuild that has the following format :

	<contributor firstname="Aleksey" lastname="Bragin"
mail=&quot;aleksey(a)reactos.org&quot; alias="fireball" />
	<contributor firstname="Alex" lastname="Ionescu"
mail=&quot;alex.ionescu(a)reactos.org&quot; alias="ion" />
	<contributor firstname="Andrew" lastname="Greenwood"
mail=&quot;lists(a)silverblade.co.uk&quot; alias="silverblade" />

Every not occasional contributor gets an alias which is the unique name for
this author for rbuild , I would like to suggest adding this alias in
addition to the author name in the header comment to assist automatic
parsing at the same time is also human readable :

/*
/ (..)
/ Programers :
/				Jhon Doe (jdoe)
/				
/

It has the advantage of being easily automatizable as the author will use a
consistent ID despite string used to represent his name "J.Doe" sometimes
and "J Doe" others. You get the idea...
