The first version of this library was released on 7-Oct-1991. After this, many versions of libjpeg were created to make the standard sustainable for future applications. The IJG was headed originally by Thomas Lane and since 2005 by Guido Vollbeding. From 2008 the IJG is part of the Institute for Applied Informatics (InfAI) in Leipzig, where the format is developed further. The\u00a0reference software of the\u00a0Independent JPEG Group was\u00a0a\u00a0key to\u00a0the success of\u00a0the original JPEG standard and\u00a0has found widespread adoption in\u00a0applications of\u00a0image coding.
