>Summary: Update Copyright statements in headers

Initial Comment:
Add @author tags to all classes that don't have this
yet, and unify the syntax of the author names (or sf
account, or name, or name+email etc).

Additionally, the copyright notices should state the
original author, instead of "The CDK project". @author
should be given for everyone who considerable contributed
to the code.

Just some questions I'm asking myself...

Q: Who's name should appear in the Javadoc coments ?
Is it the name of the original author, or the name of each
person that was involved in the class' developpement ?

Q: Where should @author tags should be found ? Only in the
class JavaDoc comments or in all possible places (i.e. in
method, field or constructor JavaDoc comments) ?

I suppose that the class maintainer's name may appear in the
JavaDoc comment in the first place (if there are more than
one author) and with an e mail link to provide easy feedback
information. I'm thinking about something like this:

@author <a href="mailto:username@...?
cc=cdk-devel@...&subject=Feedback%20
[pakage name][class name]">User Name</a>

Of course, this special author name should only appear once
per class.
