Why is my Created By contributor field blank?

I created a new work item with a new editor presentation. In the only section on the only tab I have two contributor fields and one description field.

One of the contributor fields has the Owned By attribute, and that works fine. But the other one that uses the Created By attribute is blank. Any idea why?

Hi Mark
The Created By field should never be empty (at least in the eclipse UI). Is it blank or does it display 'None'? Is the attribute name (the left part of the presentation) shown.
Could you post the relevant part of the Process Specification Source here (the configuration-data point with id 'com.ibm.team.workitem.editor.configuration.presentations')?

I thought I had tried it in Eclipse, but just in case, I tried it again, and the value was populated. So I guess my next question is why it doesn't show a value on the Web? Of course, it has a value (as shown via Eclipse and when I run queries), but when I open the work item, I only see the label "Created By" and next to it, it's blank.

This sounds like a bug. Please open a work item on jazz.net for this
problem and file it against Work Items/Web UI.
