1 2Authors of XZ Utils 3=================== 4 5 XZ Utils is developed and maintained by Lasse Collin 6 <lasse.collin@tukaani.org> and Jia Tan <jiat0218@gmail.com>. 7 8 Major parts of liblzma are based on code written by Igor Pavlov, 9 specifically the LZMA SDK <https://7-zip.org/sdk.html>. Without 10 this code, XZ Utils wouldn't exist. 11 12 The SHA-256 implementation in liblzma is based on the code found from 13 7-Zip <https://7-zip.org/>, which has a modified version of the SHA-256 14 code found from Crypto++ <https://www.cryptopp.com/>. The SHA-256 code 15 in Crypto++ was written by Kevin Springle and Wei Dai. 16 17 Some scripts have been adapted from gzip. The original versions 18 were written by Jean-loup Gailly, Charles Levert, and Paul Eggert. 19 Andrew Dudman helped adapting the scripts and their man pages for 20 XZ Utils. 21 22 The initial version of the threaded .xz decompressor was written 23 by Sebastian Andrzej Siewior. 24 25 The initial version of the .lz (lzip) decoder was written 26 by Michał Górny. 27 28 CLMUL-accelerated CRC code was contributed by Ilya Kurdyukov. 29 30 Other authors: 31 - Jonathan Nieder 32 - Joachim Henke 33 34 The GNU Autotools-based build system contains files from many authors, 35 which I'm not trying to list here. 36 37 Several people have contributed fixes or reported bugs.
