On the other hand he hadn't commit anything in last decade and he would get credit for others work
On the other hand he's an author...
mixed feelings, I'd say
Autor: {name} Contributed in years: 2007-2009.
- hardlianotion 7y agoI think the license says his name should not have been removed in the first place?
- artboomy 7y ago"Original author" sounds more clear. I like how rpcs3 done it with "former authors" block at https://rpcs3.net/about https://rpcs3.net/about
- Freak_NL 7y agoThat's the usual way of doing it. When a project grows and gains more contributions you can have the AUTHORS file have a list of former major contributors and project founders, current major contributors, and a note acknowledging the dozens of occasional and drive-by contributors (who get full credit for their patches in the revision logs). His request is not unreasonable at all.
