Component body

This module allows any name to be entered in the "Authored By" form field in the
node edit form for nodes of type "Article".

If the name does not yet exist as a user name then this module
automatically creates and sets as active a new user of role type "Open Author"
and designates the inputted name as the user name.

"Open Author" users by default have no access privileges, email accounts, or passwords.

This module was originally written for Drupal 7.34 by:
