Hmm. Personally I do share the opinion of Andrew Hunt and David Thomas, authors of the
great book "The Pragmatic Programmer". The opinion is, it is important to label files and
methods with author's name. So everybody knows who to ask, for the programmer to feel
more responsible for the code and last but not least to have something to be proud of!

The "@" tags are javadoc tags which are used by the "javadoc" tool which is used to
generate the automatic documentation system.
