This file was never truly necessary and has never actually been used in
the history of Tailscale's open source releases.
A Brief History of AUTHORS files
---
The AUTHORS file was a pattern developed at Google, originally for
Chromium, then adopted by Go and a bunch of other projects. The problem
was that Chromium originally had a copyright line only recognizing
Google as the copyright holder. Because Google (and most open source
projects) do not require copyright assignemnt for contributions, each
contributor maintains their copyright. Some large corporate contributors
then tried to add their own name to the copyright line in the LICENSE
file or in file headers. This quickly becomes unwieldy, and puts a
tremendous burden on anyone building on top of Chromium, since the
license requires that they keep all copyright lines intact.
The compromise was to create an AUTHORS file that would list all of the
copyright holders. The LICENSE file and source file headers would then
include that list by reference, listing the copyright holder as "The
Chromium Authors".
This also become cumbersome to simply keep the file up to date with a
high rate of new contributors. Plus it's not always obvious who the
copyright holder is. Sometimes it is the individual making the
contribution, but many times it may be their employer. There is no way
for the proejct maintainer to know.
Eventually, Google changed their policy to no longer recommend trying to
keep the AUTHORS file up to date proactively, and instead to only add to
it when requested: https://opensource.google/docs/releasing/authors.
They are also clear that:
> Adding contributors to the AUTHORS file is entirely within the
> project's discretion and has no implications for copyright ownership.
It was primarily added to appease a small number of large contributors
that insisted that they be recognized as copyright holders (which was
entirely their right to do). But it's not truly necessary, and not even
the most accurate way of identifying contributors and/or copyright
holders.
In practice, we've never added anyone to our AUTHORS file. It only lists
Tailscale, so it's not really serving any purpose. It also causes
confusion because Tailscalars put the "Tailscale Inc & AUTHORS" header
in other open source repos which don't actually have an AUTHORS file, so
it's ambiguous what that means.
Instead, we just acknowledge that the contributors to Tailscale (whoever
they are) are copyright holders for their individual contributions. We
also have the benefit of using the DCO (developercertificate.org) which
provides some additional certification of their right to make the
contribution.
The source file changes were purely mechanical with:
git ls-files | xargs sed -i -e 's/\(Tailscale Inc &\) AUTHORS/\1 contributors/g'

It's an unnecessary nuisance having it. We go out of our way to redact
it in so many places when we don't even need it there anyway.

This adds netx.DialFunc, unifying a type we have a bazillion other
places, giving it now a nice short name that's clickable in
editors, etc.
That highlighted that my earlier move (03b47a55c7956) of stuff from
nettest into netx moved too much: it also dragged along the memnet
impl, meaning all users of netx.DialFunc who just wanted netx for the
type definition were instead also pulling in all of memnet.
So move the memnet implementation netx.Network into memnet, a package
we already had.
Then use netx.DialFunc in a bunch of places. I'm sure I missed some.
And plenty remain in other repos, to be updated later.

Many places that need to work with node/peer capabilities end up with a
something-View and need to either reimplement the helper code or make an
expensive copy. We have the machinery to easily handle this now.

This adds a new `UserLogf` field to the `Server` struct.
When set this any logs generated by Server are logged using
`UserLogf` and all spammy backend logs are logged to `Logf`.
If it `UserLogf` is unset, we default to `log.Printf` and
if `Logf` is unset we discard all the spammy logs.

The design changed during integration and testing, resulting in the
earlier implementation growing in the appc package to be intended now
only for the sniproxy implementation. That code is moved to it's final
location, and the current App Connector code is now renamed.

Port 8080 is routinely used for HTTP services, make it easier to
use --forwards=tcp/8080/... by moving the metrics port out of the

1. Add TCP port forwarding.
For example: ./sniproxy -forwards=tcp/22/github.com
will forward SSH to github.
% ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_ecdsa.pem -T git@github.com
Hi GitHubUser! You've successfully authenticated, but GitHub does not
provide shell access.
% ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_ecdsa.pem -T git@100.65.x.y
Hi GitHubUser! You've successfully authenticated, but GitHub does not
provide shell access.
2. Additionally export clientmetrics as prometheus metrics for local
scraping over the tailnet: http://sniproxy-hostname:8080/debug/varz

No ListenPacket support yet, but Listen with a udp network type fit
easier into netstack's model to start.
Then added an example of using it to cmd/sniproxy with a little udp
:53 handler.
No tests in tsnet yet because we don't have support for dialing over
UDP in tsnet yet. When that's done, a new test can test both sides.
