Details by Jeffrey Lee (213):
I think this has been broken forever, but it occasionally trips people up, so it’s worth mentioning here.
It looks like the code just uses the details for the currently logged in user rather than extracting the user name from the CVS logs. If it can’t (easily) be fixed to extract the user details from the logs, removing PL_AUTHORS from PERMALINK_ORDER in config.py looks like it should prevent it from outputting the author information, which is likely to be better than having misleading information there.

- Status changed from Open to WontFix
In light of the recent move to using Git, cvslog2web is no longer used so this ticket has probably become moot.
