I have a problem of writing the author list as "Eastlake,
D., and E. Panitz", rather than "Eastlake, D., and Panitz,
E."
Nope, I understood that was your concern. It is a valid form
according to several style manuals. The rest of my note was
an attempt to explain why.
Sorry, I didn't get that.
Ok -- the current format is fine as long as people aren't bound to
miswriting the last author.
However, I'd strongly suggest adding some small amount of text to
rationalize the editorial style, to avoid a thread like this occurring
when people wonder whether the style is correct or not.
