    Attempt to find an author if (s)he comes via RT.
    
    In the case of commits, it maybe that the reporter used RT, which results
    in a generic RT email address. Instead of just reporting the author as '!',
    we'll do an attempt to see whether he's named in the AUTHORS file.

+Perl 5.15.9 represents approximately 4 weeks of development since Perl 5.15.8
+and contains approximately 74,000 lines of changes across 470 files from 23
+authors.
+
+Perl continues to flourish into its third decade thanks to a vibrant community
+of users and developers. The following people are known to have contributed the
+improvements that became Perl 5.15.9:
+
+Aaron Crane, Abigail, Chris 'BinGOs' Williams, Craig A. Berry, Dave Rolsky,
+David Cantrell, David Golden, David Mitchell, Eric Brine, Father Chrysostomos,
+Florian Ragwitz, James E Keenan, Jesse Vincent, Karl Williamson, Marc Green,
+Max Maischein, Nicholas Clark, Pau Amma, Reini Urban, Ricardo Signes, Tony
+Cook, Yves Orton, Zefram.
+
+The list above is almost certainly incomplete as it is automatically generated
+from version control history. In particular, it does not include the names of
+the (very much appreciated) contributors who reported issues to the Perl bug
+tracker.
+
+Many of the changes included in this version originated in the CPAN modules
+included in Perl's core. We're grateful to the entire CPAN community for
+helping Perl to flourish.
