185I hope you find bzip2 useful. Feel free to contact me at
186 jseward@bzip.org
187if you have any suggestions or queries. Many people mailed me with
188comments, suggestions and patches after the releases of bzip-0.15,
189bzip-0.21, and bzip2 versions 0.1pl2, 0.9.0, 0.9.5, 1.0.0, 1.0.1,
1901.0.2 and 1.0.3, and the changes in bzip2 are largely a result of this
191feedback. I thank you for your comments.
