Description Ruediger Landmann 2013-09-26 02:53:11 UTC
Description of problem:
PressGang can attribute authorship of a topic to a specific individual, but cannot attribute authorship to a collective corpauthor. 

Because the author tags are used for purposes other than book credits, it might make sense for "Assigned Author" and "Attribution" to be separated out. Default attribution might also be selectable on a per-book or per-project basis. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Build 201309081012

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to set up a tag for a corpauthor

Actual results:
Find that there's no way to do it

Expected results:
Be able to set a corpauthor

Note: This can currently be done (as an alternative method/workaround) by using an Author Group topic to manually create the data. See BZ#981118 for more details on using that method.
