inconsistent attribution schemes in the changelo (fix completed in vcs)

I was looking at the changelog for the CVS version and think I've found a problem.

  • [Fix] Use phpBB 3.1.x method for storing cached data to prevent PHP bug with our usage of var_export(). (Thanks to Techie Micheal and HoL for pointing out possible problems)
  • [Sec Precaution] Stricter validation of the HTTP_HOST header (Thanks to Micheal Cottingham et al for pointing out possible issues in derived code)

Given that Techie-Micheal and Micheal Cottingham are the same person, shouldn't both attributions be the same?

You mean I'm not two people? :P

Yeah, I think it should be the same for consistency. I kinda prefer to use Techie-Micheal since everybody else has their usernames rather than their real names, but I'm not picky. :P

Not to be picky, but my name is Techie-Micheal, rather than Techie Micheal :)
