+Silicon Graphics has seen fit to allow us to give this work away. It
+is free. There is no support or guarantee of any sort as to its
+operations, correctness, or whatever. If you do anything useful with
+all or parts of it you need to honor the copyright notices. It would
+also be nice to be acknowledged.<p>

+The libtiff software was written by Sam Leffler while working for
+Silicon Graphics.<p>
+
+The LZW algorithm is derived from the compress program (the proper
+attribution is included in the source code). The Group 3 fax stuff
+originated as code from Jef Poskanzer, but has since been rewritten
+several times. The latest version uses an algorithm from Frank
+Cringle -- consult <TT>libtiff/mkg3states.c</TT> and
+<TT>libtiff/tif_fax3.h</TT> for further information.
+The JPEG support was written by Tom Lane and is dependent on the
+excellent work of Tom Lane and the Independent JPEG Group (IJG)
+who distribute their work under friendly licensing similar to this
+software.
+Many other people have by now helped with bug fixes and code; a
+few of the more persistent contributors have been:
