Question: I am wondering how you change the comments that Xcode puts in the top of each source file to set the proper username and company name instead of updating every file by hand if these macro fields are different from the default settings of Address Book.

It keeps crashing or hanging all the time I try to reinstall the SDK. What is going on with Snow Leopard and Xcode 3.2.2? Please do not say clean install… This could very well be an Apple problem.
