It doesn't take much looking to find https://github.com/IlyaGrebnov - remarkably interested in Burrows-Wheeler based compression, and https://compressionratings.com/a_ilya_grebnov.html actually connects name and projects. Could be a start... Please: Make switching forks an actual, obvious, and documented event in the commit message. Unfortunately, we live in a time where you sometimes cannot trust search results for popular software, and "various actors" take over repositories and distribution channels. We should aim to keep very proper paper trails of this. And now to the question of the value of a software which the original author abandoned 20 years ago and went on to develop a series of successors to that software... you know the spiel.
