Name: Monticello-ar.394 Author: Andreas Raab Time: 7 May 2010, 9:21:26.462 pm UUID: 5dd545eb-0aae-1843-95ba-d64d9e5f403e Ancestors: Monticello-ar.393

Experimental: Make Monticello use the full author name instead of initials. Easier to keep track off. Requires changes to derive authorInitials from authorName.
