I cannot clearly see this in git log (yes, he has one commit, but that one changes one character only).

@wanderer are you the author of this EIP?

Thanks for double checking. I tracked down the git history and @ethers was the author #17

It is standard to change the author for this kind of derivative work (in this case, derived from BIP 123). For example REP 1, JEP 1, BEP 1 are all derived from PEP 1 but have changed the author. The original author of the preexisting work should be given attribution, but the author should be the person who actually submitted the EIP.

EIPs/eip-4.md Outdated

Doesn't this now read as BIP123 was adapted to EIP4 by Eric Lombrozo?
