/**
 * Maven defines contributors and developers in the POM. This annotation will
 * generate a (not standardized by OSGi) Bundle-Contributors header.
 * <p>
 * This annotation can be used directly on a type or it can 'color' an
 * annotation. This coloring allows custom annotations that define a specific
 * contributor. For example:
 * 
 * <pre>
 *  {@code @}BundleContributor("Peter.Kriens@aQute.biz")
 * {@code @}interface pkriens {} {@code @}pkriens public class MyFoo { ... }
 * </pre>
 * 
 * Duplicates are removed before the header is generated and the coloring does
 * not create an entry in the header, only an annotation on an actual type is
 * counted. This makes it possible to make a library of contributors without
 * then adding them all to the header.
 * <p>
 * See <a href=https://maven.apache.org/pom.html#Developers>Maven POM
 * reference</a>
