Lzip was written by Antonio Diaz Diaz.
-Lzip implements a simplified version of the LZMA algorithm.
-The original LZMA algorithm was designed by Igor Pavlov.
+The ideas embodied in lzip are due to (at least) the following people:
+Abraham Lempel and Jacob Ziv (for the LZ algorithm), Andrey Markov (for
+the definition of Markov chains), G.N.N. Martin (for the definition of
+range encoding), Igor Pavlov (for putting all the above together in
+LZMA), and Julian Seward (for bzip2's CLI and the idea of unzcrash).
