| Authors of XZ Utils |
| =================== |
| |
| XZ Utils is developed and maintained by Lasse Collin |
| <lasse.collin@tukaani.org> and Jia Tan <jiat0218@gmail.com>. |
| |
| Major parts of liblzma are based on code written by Igor Pavlov, |
| specifically the LZMA SDK <https://7-zip.org/sdk.html>. Without |
| this code, XZ Utils wouldn't exist. |
| |
| The SHA-256 implementation in liblzma is based on the code found from |
| 7-Zip <https://7-zip.org/>, which has a modified version of the SHA-256 |
| code found from Crypto++ <https://www.cryptopp.com/>. The SHA-256 code |
| in Crypto++ was written by Kevin Springle and Wei Dai. |
| |
| Some scripts have been adapted from gzip. The original versions |
| were written by Jean-loup Gailly, Charles Levert, and Paul Eggert. |
| Andrew Dudman helped adapting the scripts and their man pages for |
| XZ Utils. |
| |
| The initial version of the threaded .xz decompressor was written |
| by Sebastian Andrzej Siewior. |
| |
| The initial version of the .lz (lzip) decoder was written |
| by Michał Górny. |
| |
| CLMUL-accelerated CRC code was contributed by Ilya Kurdyukov. |
