Description Xavier Méhaut CLA 2002-09-18 01:04:01 EDT 
Hello,
I would suggest the following ; it could be very useful to update automatically 
the author and date documentation tag in the source code when a change occurs 
in method or a class for instance. I know that we can have such information 
with CVS , but if we don't use a SCM tool, or if we want to see quickly who has 
modified the code, it is very useful... Of course we need, as in VA, to have 
the notion of login, but is we want in the future to have a "task oriented" 
development tool, we will need it ;-)
regards
Xavier

we have no plans for such a feature. Maybe a 3rd party opportunity?

As of now 'LATER' and 'REMIND' resolutions are no longer supported.
Please reopen this bug if it is still valid for you.
