Re-sending this from a host with a sane email configuration. If this

Why not use the role and condition attributes in DocBook for each author?
<authorgroup>
<author role="maintainer" condition="current"> ... </author>
<author role="author" condition="current">...</author>
<author role="author" condition="original"> ... </author>
<author role="author" condition="former"> ... </author>
</authorgroup>
