The author element identifies the primary author of a feed, or the specific author of an entry. If no author element exists for an entry, then it is safe to assume that the author of the entry is the same as the author designated in the feed.

Example

<author>
  <name>Byrne Reese</name>
  <uri>http://www.majordojo.com/</uri>
  <email>byrne@majordojo.com</email>
</author>
