Editors vs Authors vs Contributors, was: ANNOUNCEMENT: The IETF Trustees invite your review and comments on a proposed Work-Around to the Pre-5378 Problem

[Julian Reschke <julian.reschke at gmx.de>]

I do agree that if we have a limit for the front matter, it should name 
editors, not authors.

It seems to me that, assuming we agree on "editors are authors", all of 
them could be put into an "Authors" section (with the editors marked as 
they already are).

That leaves us with the question whether any contributor (IPR-wise) 
needs to be called "author". Not sure about that. But if we don't call 
them authors, they should be listed in a agreed-upon place in the spec. 
Because of the IPR implications, that probably should also include 
contact info, just as for authors.

BR, Julian
