CrossRef - author import error

Hi there,

it seems that the CrossRef data source often drops some of the authors. 
E.g.: for doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.73.205101, it only imports the first two 
authors F. Ortmann

<http://scitation.aip.org/vsearch/servlet/VerityServlet?KEY=ALL&possible1=Ortmann%2C+F.&possible1zone=author&maxdisp=25&smode=strresults&aqs=true> 
and F. Bechstedt

<http://scitation.aip.org/vsearch/servlet/VerityServlet?KEY=ALL&possible1=Bechstedt%2C+F.&possible1zone=author&maxdisp=25&smode=strresults&aqs=true>, 
but ignores the third author W. G. Schmidt

<http://scitation.aip.org/vsearch/servlet/VerityServlet?KEY=ALL&possible1=Schmidt%2C+W.+G.&possible1zone=author&maxdisp=25&smode=strresults&aqs=true>. 
I find that this always happens for Phys. Rev. articles, when the 
authors with different affiliations are listed in separate
lines.

Greetings,
Norbert

Here's the section from the API search result with the authors in it 
          <contributors>
           <person_name sequence="first" 
contributor_role="author"><given_name>Norbert</given_name><surname>Nemec</surname></person_name>
           <person_name sequence="additional" 
contributor_role="author"><given_name>Gianaurelio</given_name><surname>Cuniberti</surname></person_name>
          </contributors>

Those are the only two people listed in the response. There's not much I can 
do about it if CrossRef doesn't have the additional authors listed.

Sorry, I had the wrong result pulled up. Here's the right one

          <contributors>
           <person_name sequence="first" 
contributor_role="author"><given_name>F.</given_name><surname>Ortmann</surname></person_name>
           <person_name sequence="additional" 
contributor_role="author"><given_name>F.</given_name><surname>Bechstedt</surname></person_name>
          </contributors>

As you can see, there are only two authors listed in the search result.

Hmm - so it seems to be a bug in CrossRef. I just reported it there. 
(Unfortunately, I could not check the raw data myself, because my 
web-browser gives an error whenever I try to use openurl manually.
