Re: [Bug-tar] .lz also can be extension for .lzma files

[Karl Berry]

    This is a very extended error. The author of lzma-utils is Ville 
    Koskinen, as you can see in lzma-4.32.7/src/lzma/lzmp.cpp:
    " * Copyright (C) 2005 Ville Koskinen"

Evidently Lasse used code written by Ville.  I had forgotten that;
thanks for pointing it out.  (BTW, perhaps Ville is the
otherwise-anonymous author of p7zip; I'm not sure.)

    Lasse Collin later became the maintainer of lzma-utils.

As far as I can tell, Lasse was always the maintainer (and creator) of
the lzma-utils package as a whole.  He also used code copyrighted by
Igor Pavlov, the FSF, the X Consortium, Jean-loup Gailly, and others.
