11 years ago I followed your directions and can't reproduce your issue - I get correct truncation to three names after step 4. Moreover the following document shows correct minnames/maxnames truncation.
\documentclass{article}
\begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib}
<your bib entries>
\end{filecontents}
\usepackage[backend=biber,maxnames=5,minnames=3]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{\jobname.bib}
\addbibresource{biblatex-examples.bib}
\begin{document}
\nocite{abbott:2004:ful,abbott:2004:aof,almendro,herrmann,companion}
\printbibliography
\end{document}
lsfinn
The maxnames/minnames option appears to be failing for entries with long author lists.
At the end of this note is a two entry bibtex data file and a tex file that can be used to demonstrate the problem. If either of the two entries is cited by itself then maxnames and minnames perform as expected. If, however, both entries are cited, then maxnames appears to take on a large value and minnames appears to have no effect.
To demonstrate 1) copy the text into the indicated files (foo.tex, foo.bib). 2) Execute the command % pdflatex foo ; biber foo; pdflatex foo ; pddflatex foo Note that the file foo.pdf will show a single bibliography entry with the correct number of names (3) before et al. 3) In foo.tex uncomment the citation abbott:2004:ful 4) Execute the command % pdflatex foo ; biber foo; pdflatex foo ; pddflatex foo Note that the file foo.pdf will show two entries, each with a large number of names, but not all the names, before the list is truncated with et al.
I am working with biber version 1.5 and biblatex version 2.5, all installed via TeXLive and updated with TeXLive Utility.

These data come from the first LIGO science run, during which all three LIGO interferometers were operated over a 2-week period spanning August and September of 2002. The method of cross correlating the outputs of two interferometers is used for analysis. We describe in detail practical signal processing issues that arise when working with real data, and we establish an observational upper limit on a $f^{-3}$ power spectrum of gravitational waves. Our 90\% confidence limit is $\Omega0h{100}^2\leq23\pm-4.6$ in the frequency band 40-314 Hz, where $h_{100}$ is the Hubble constant in units of 100 km/sec/Mpc and $\Omega_0$ is the gravitational wave energy density per logarithmic frequency interval in units of the closure density. This limit is approximately $10^4$ times better than the previous, broadband direct limit using interferometric detectors, and nearly 3 times better than the best narrow-band bar detector limit. As LIGO and other worldwide detectors improve in sensitivity and attain their design goals, the analysis procedures described here should lead to stochastic background sensitivity levels of astrophysical interest." }
