Sorry, no, the initial authors of the file were:
* Copyright (C) 2003,2004 Krzysztof Benedyczak (golbi@mat.uni.torun.pl)
* Michal Wronski (michal.wronski@gmail.com)
*
I did cleanup & merge support and probably many small changes.
But from what I remember, the majority of the code is from Krzysztof and
Michal.
