[Users] How to delete an author ?

For structural reasons, authors cannot be removed from a journal, once 
registered. While it is unclear if this limitation will be lifted in the 
future development of hyperjournal, an alternative solution for "wrong" 
authors exists:

an option in the 'journal config menu', 'Author equivalence explicitation', 
allows the administrator to indicate that two or more authors (users) are the 
'same' person.

This way, it is possible to keep relations consistency even if the same author 
submits different contributions with different users.
