Yes. When an Open Graph tag is set, it should look like:
<meta property="og:author" content="123456">
Where the 123456 is the user's Facebook ID.
Many extensions will set a tag on the page that looks like:
<meta name="author" content="Alex Andreae">
That's a valid tag and *not* a Facebook Open Graph tag. However, Facebook will still try to parse it if an og:author tag isn't set. The warning is that the alternate tag above should use property= instead of name=. Ultimately though, it doesn't matter, since the tag won't be correct since it's not using a Facebook User Id... so it's proper for them to ignore the tag.. and throw a few warnings in the process.
Supporting the og:author tag is something we have planned for a future update as well, so you know.
I hope that helps explain,
Alex
